The galaxy presents as an elliptical-type system, with a relatively smooth and featureless appearance. The overall color is bluish-white, suggesting a population of younger, hotter stars, particularly concentrated in the central region. There is a distinct elongation to the galaxy's shape, appearing cigar-shaped, rather than perfectly spherical. There are no visible spiral arms or prominent dust lanes. Indications of any ongoing major mergers or significant tidal disturbances are absent, though the presence of a minor disturbance cannot be completely ruled out at this resolution.
