The galaxy presents as an elongated, moderately luminous object. It appears to be relatively smooth in texture, with a suggestion of a central bulge that appears more reddish or yellow, possibly indicating a greater concentration of older stars. The galaxy’s overall shape is somewhat cigar-shaped, suggesting it is an elliptical galaxy viewed at an angle. There is a subtle colour gradient, transitioning from a reddish central region to a slightly bluer hue in the outer regions of the galaxy, suggesting a small amount of ongoing star formation, though the overall star formation rate seems relatively low. No strong indications of major mergers or tidal disturbances are observed, though a slight asymmetry may indicate a minor interaction in its past. The galaxy appears well-defined and isolated within its immediate field.
