The galaxy appears as a diffuse, centrally concentrated object. Its morphology is largely smooth, with only subtle features detectable. The overall shape is somewhat elongated, deviating from a perfect sphere. There is no prominent spiral structure visible, nor is there any obvious bar feature traversing the galactic nucleus. There is no evidence of an on-going major merger, although a minor perturbation to the overall structure can not be ruled out. The color gradients suggest the presence of older stellar populations throughout the galaxy. There appears to be a small degree of ongoing star formation, but the overall rate appears to be low. The galaxy exhibits a consistent, gradual decline in brightness from the center outwards with no distinct arms.
