The galaxy appears as a relatively smooth, centrally concentrated object. Its overall shape is somewhat rounded, though not perfectly circular. There is a subtle elongation present, suggesting a slight deviation from a purely spherical morphology. The galaxy presents a generally homogeneous color profile, with a reddish-gold hue that suggests a population of older stars and a low rate of active star formation. There are no prominent spiral arms or dust lanes visible. Minor disturbances are possibly present in the structure, but the overall impression is of a fairly relaxed, evolved system. The galaxy is relatively compact in size. Overall, the morphology is consistent with an elliptical galaxy.
