The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth elliptical type. The central bulge is prominent and exhibits a yellowish-white color, suggesting an older stellar population. The overall shape is somewhat elongated, appearing almost cigar-shaped rather than perfectly spherical. There is little evidence of spiral arms or significant dust lanes. The galaxy seems undisturbed, with no apparent signs of major mergers or tidal distortions, though there may be a slight asymmetry to the outer halo. The color gradient appears relatively smooth, with the central region being the brightest and gradually fading into the outer regions.
