The galaxy presents a largely smooth, elliptical morphology. Its light profile exhibits a centrally concentrated bulge that fades gradually towards the outer regions.  The color indices suggest a stellar population composed largely of older stars. The overall luminosity indicates a fairly massive system. No clear spiral arm structures or prominent dust lanes are discernible in the image. However, there are a few areas of subtle inhomogeneity suggesting faint or diffuse regions. The overall form appears relatively undisturbed, lacking obvious signs of a recent major merger, though minor disturbances cannot be ruled out.  The galaxy appears to be a relatively evolved system, likely with a low current rate of star formation.
