The galaxy presents an elliptical morphology, exhibiting a smooth, generally featureless structure. The object's shape is elongated, tending towards a cigar-like appearance. A distinct color gradient is observable; the central region appears yellowish-white, suggestive of a population of older stars, whereas the outer regions exhibit a bluer hue. This may indicate regions of more recent, though relatively mild, star formation in the outer reaches of the galaxy. No prominent dust lanes or spiral arm structures are discernible. There is some visual evidence for minor gravitational disturbance.
