The galaxy presents as a largely smooth, elliptical-like structure, with a high degree of central concentration. The core appears bright and slightly diffuse. There is a slight elongation, but the overall shape is more rounded than cigar-shaped.  Subtle color variations are visible, with a dominant yellowish-white hue in the central region, possibly indicating a population of older stars. There is a hint of reddish light towards what appears to be the lower edge of the galaxy, this could be due to dust or areas with regions of more recent star formation. There appears to be no indication of major ongoing mergers or tidal disturbances in the immediate vicinity, though minor disturbances cannot be ruled out.
