The galaxy presents an elliptical morphology, appearing cigar-shaped with a smooth, centrally concentrated light distribution. The dominant color is a pale blue, suggesting a population of relatively young, hot stars, though the overall smoothness may indicate limited recent star formation. The absence of prominent spiral arms or dust lanes is consistent with its classification as an elliptical galaxy. There is no evidence of major mergers or significant tidal disturbances in this image, though subtle asymmetry might indicate a minor interaction.
