The galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy, characterized by a generally smooth and featureless light distribution. It exhibits a moderate ellipticity, appearing somewhat elongated in shape, but not extremely so. The central region of the galaxy is significantly brighter and more concentrated than its outer regions, suggesting a substantial stellar population density in the core. The galaxy appears to be an orangish-yellow hue, which indicates an older stellar population, dominated by redder, cooler stars. There are no readily discernible spiral arms or prominent dust lanes. The overall structure implies that the galaxy is relatively undisturbed, and has not recently undergone a major merger.
