The galaxy appears as a centrally concentrated object with a smooth, elliptical morphology. There is no apparent dust lane or spiral arm structure visible. The light is yellowish, suggesting a population of older stars. The shape is somewhat elongated, not perfectly spherical, but not extremely cigar-shaped. The galaxy does not appear to be undergoing a major merger or tidal disruption, although there is a possible minor asymmetry. The light is fairly uniform, indicating little active star formation currently within the galaxy. Overall, the galaxy looks relatively undisturbed.
