The galaxy presents as a largely featureless, elliptical structure with a prominent central bulge that appears nearly spheroidal. The light is concentrated toward the core, which shows a bright, concentrated emission. Moving outward from the center, the intensity of the light gradually diminishes. There is a slight elongation to the galaxy, but it appears mostly round. The galaxy exhibits a smooth appearance with no readily apparent spiral arms or other distinct structures and lacks any notable dust lanes. Its color is subtly blue-ish, hinting at the presence of some young stars, but this is not very pronounced. There's no indication of tidal tails, rings, or other signs of recent major mergers or interactions. The overall impression is that of a relatively quiescent system.
