The galaxy presents a somewhat amorphous, elliptical appearance. It exhibits a bright, concentrated central bulge, which graduates outwards with decreasing intensity into a fainter, diffuse halo. The overall color of the galaxy appears to be yellowish-white, suggesting a stellar population dominated by older, less massive stars. There is a faint blue region that appears to be towards the top left of the halo. The galaxy does not display prominent spiral arm structures or dust lanes. There is no strong evidence of any ongoing major merger events or tidal distortions, though there appears to be some minor disturbance of the outer halo.
