The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elliptical structure with a concentrated central bulge. There's a noticeable color gradient from the core outwards; the central region exhibits a yellowish hue, possibly indicating an older stellar population, while the outer regions display a bluer tint, suggesting the presence of younger, hotter stars and some star formation. The galaxy is more elongated than circular, however it does not appear highly distorted, with no obvious signs of major recent mergers or tidal disturbances. There might be some minor disturbances in the outer arms. Overall, the galaxy appears to be a fairly mature system with ongoing, but perhaps not intensely vigorous, star formation.
