The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elliptical-like structure. The light is concentrated towards the center with a bright core. The outer edges of the galaxy fade gently into the background sky. The overall shape is mostly round and undisturbed, with little evidence of spiral arms or irregular features. The color suggests an older stellar population, with a slight reddish tint to the light, though there is some blue around the edges. This indicates that the rate of star formation is low. There is no indication of any current merger activity.
