The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elliptical-like structure. There is a high degree of central concentration, with a bright, somewhat diffuse core. Moving outwards from the core, the surface brightness gradually decreases. No distinct spiral arms or bar features are discernible in this image. The overall color of the galaxy appears to be slightly redder, suggesting a population of older stars. The galaxy seems largely undisturbed, with no obvious signs of ongoing major merger activity or significant tidal distortions. There is only the slightest possibility of an indiscernable dust lane. The shape is elongated, but not dramatically cigar-shaped.
