The galaxy presents as a somewhat elongated, cigar-shaped structure with a relatively smooth, featureless appearance. It exhibits a central concentration of light that is a warm yellow color. The light fades into a more diffuse and fainter glow in the surrounding areas of the galaxy. There is a hint of a disk, although no spiral arms or distinct features are clearly visible. The galaxy's color suggests a population of older stars and a lack of ongoing, significant star formation. There are no apparent signs of any recent major mergers. There is no indication of dust lanes or other obscuring material. The overall morphology points towards an early-type galaxy.
