The galaxy appears to be an elliptical or lenticular type, exhibiting a smooth, diffuse light profile with minimal discernible structure. The central region is significantly brighter and more concentrated, suggesting a prominent galactic nucleus. The overall color is a yellowish-white hue, indicative of an older stellar population with fewer young, hot, blue stars. The galaxy's shape is somewhat elongated, deviating slightly from perfect circularity, and it has a somewhat cigar shaped appearance. There's no clear evidence of spiral arms or dust lanes, and there does not seem to be a merger occurring, although there may be a minor disturbance. The image suggests a relatively evolved galaxy with a moderate mass.
