The galaxy appears as an elliptical or lenticular type. It exhibits a concentrated central bulge with a relatively smooth light distribution. The overall shape is elongated, with an approximate cigar shape, indicating a departure from perfect circularity. There's a notable color gradient, shifting from a more reddish hue in the central region to slightly bluer tones towards the outer edges. There is no evidence of strong spiral arm structures or significant dust lanes, which suggests that the galaxy is not actively forming many new stars. There does not appear to be a presence of any ongoing major merging events or significant tidal disturbances in the visual data, suggesting its morphological stability.
