The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elliptical object with a notable central bulge. It displays a gradual decrease in luminosity from the core outward, indicating a centrally concentrated mass distribution. The color gradient suggests a stellar population with a higher proportion of older stars in the central regions, likely transitioning to a somewhat younger population in the outer regions. The overall shape is elongated, but not extremely so. There is no visually apparent evidence of spiral arm structure or significant dust lanes. No major mergers or interactions are evident, although some slight irregularities in the outer halo cannot be ruled out with this image.
