The galaxy presents as a moderately bright, elliptical object with a smooth, diffuse appearance. Its light is concentrated towards the center, where a bright, yellowish core can be observed. The galaxy exhibits a flattened shape, appearing elongated along a particular axis, suggesting it may be an oblate spheroid. The overall color is a warm yellow, with hints of red in the central bulge, potentially indicative of an older stellar population and dust presence. There are faint, blueish extensions apparent at either end of the major axis, which may indicate areas of younger star formation, though these features are poorly defined and subtle. No distinct spiral arms or other detailed structures are readily visible. The overall impression is of a relatively evolved galaxy, possibly an early-type spiral or an elliptical galaxy viewed at an oblique angle.
