The galaxy presents an elongated, cigar-shaped morphology, suggestive of an elliptical galaxy type. The central region exhibits a higher concentration of light, appearing as a bright, diffuse bulge. The overall color is reddish-orange, indicating a population of older stars and a relative lack of ongoing star formation. There is minimal evidence of spiral arm structures or prominent dust lanes. There is a small and slightly separated region of blue-shifted light at one end of the galaxy, suggesting star formation may be present. No tidal tails or other signs of major mergers are readily apparent, although a minor disturbance cannot be ruled out based on the visual data alone.
