The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, centrally concentrated elliptical morphology. The light is dominated by a yellow-red hue at its core, with a fainter bluish-white color surrounding it. There is a slight elongation, making the shape appear more in between a perfect circle and a cigar shape. No prominent spiral arms or dust lanes are discernible. There is no major morphological disturbance or merging activity is apparent. The apparent size is relatively small, indicative of its distance. The blue color and yellow color could indicate some star formation despite the smooth, elliptical morphology. The smoothness suggests an evolved system with likely a large population of older stars.
