The galaxy presents a largely smooth, elliptical morphology. It is roughly cigar-shaped and exhibits a central concentration of light with an apparent decrease in intensity toward its outer regions. The dominant color is a yellowish-orange hue concentrated in the core. Fainter, bluer tones appear to be present in the outer regions, but are quite subdued. There is no apparent spiral arm structure or strong evidence of ongoing major mergers or significant tidal disturbances. The overall impression is that of a relatively undisturbed system.
