The galaxy presents as a lenticular or possibly an elliptical type, viewed at a significant angle relative to its rotational axis. The light distribution suggests a relatively smooth morphology, with a concentrated central bulge region. There's a subtle color gradient visible; the central bulge displays a yellowish hue indicative of an older stellar population, while the outer regions appear slightly bluer, hinting at the presence of younger stars or ongoing star formation, albeit at a low rate. The overall shape is elongated, exhibiting a cigar-like appearance. There is no clear evidence of significant ongoing mergers or major disturbances. The lack of prominent spiral arms or a well-defined disk supports the classification as a lenticular or elliptical galaxy.
