The galaxy presents as a smooth, elliptical object with a prominent central bulge. The luminosity profile appears centrally concentrated, exhibiting a gradual decrease in brightness towards the outer regions. The overall color is yellowish-orange, suggestive of an older stellar population with a relative paucity of young, massive stars. The galaxy is elongated, with a cigar-shaped morphology. There is no evidence of spiral arms, dust lanes, or any significant morphological disturbance indicating recent major mergers. There may be some faint blue scattered light on the periphery, indicating on-going star formation, though this is minor.
