The galaxy presents as a flattened ellipsoid, suggesting an elliptical morphology, although a spiral galaxy seen edge-on cannot be ruled out. The central region exhibits a concentrated, bright yellowish-orange color, indicative of an older stellar population and potentially significant dust obscuration. Fainter, bluer hues emanate from the outer regions of the galaxy, possibly reflecting younger stars or lower metallicity. The overall structure appears relatively smooth with no prominent spiral arms or distinct features readily visible. The axial ratio indicates a degree of elongation, leaning toward a cigar shape. There is no obvious indication of ongoing major merging events, although minor tidal disturbances cannot be excluded from the image alone. The observed color gradients suggest a radial variation in stellar population and/or dust distribution, with older, redder stars dominating the central bulge and a younger, bluer population residing in the outer regions.
