The galaxy appears as a centrally concentrated, relatively smooth object with an elliptical morphology. There is little evidence of spiral arm structure or significant dust lanes. The color profile suggests a dominant population of older stars, giving it a yellowish-white hue, particularly towards the core. Fainter, bluer light is diffusely scattered around the outside edge of the galaxy indicating the presence of some younger stars, but it is not concentrated into distinct regions of star formation. The galaxy appears mostly undisturbed, with no signs of a recent or ongoing major merger event. Any irregularities present are minor. It is a massive galaxy with ongoing but low star formation. The shape appears nearly round, showing no signs of being oblong.
