This galaxy exhibits an elliptical morphology, appearing elongated with a high degree of smoothness and a slight cigar shape. The light distribution suggests a concentrated central bulge, surrounded by a fainter, more diffuse halo of stars. The galaxy displays a relatively uniform color profile, appearing yellowish-white, indicative of a population of older stars. There is no apparent dust lane or evidence of spiral arm structure. The galaxy shows no obvious signs of any on-going major merger activity, although a slight asymmetry to the outer halo may suggest a possible minor interaction.
