The galaxy appears as a generally smooth, elliptical object. It exhibits a central, brighter bulge that diminishes in intensity outwards. There is a slight elongation or cigar-like morphology to the galaxy, suggesting it is not perfectly spherical. The galaxy presents a predominantly blue hue, especially towards its outer regions, possibly indicating the presence of younger stars or active star formation, though the light appears to be smooth. The smooth appearance dominates. There is a subtle indication of minor disturbances or asymmetries in the overall shape; there is a possible sign of tidal interactions in the form of extended faint light on the outer edge. No spiral arm structures or dust lanes are clearly discernible.
