The galaxy presents a roughly elliptical morphology, with a bright, concentrated central bulge that emits primarily in the yellow and red wavelengths. The extended disk surrounding the bulge exhibits a bluer hue, suggestive of ongoing star formation. However, the overall color index indicates a system with a significant population of older stars. The galaxy is not perfectly smooth, with slight asymmetry or minor disturbances visible in the outer disk, possibly indicating past interactions or minor mergers. The disk appears to be viewed relatively face-on, with no significant obscuration by dust lanes.
