The galaxy presents as an elongated, elliptical structure with a pronounced central bulge. The core region exhibits a bright, yellowish hue, indicative of an older stellar population. The luminosity appears to gradually decrease from the center outward, creating a smooth, diffused halo. There is little evidence of defined spiral arms or prominent dust lanes, consistent with a classification toward the elliptical end of the Hubble sequence. The overall color is predominantly reddish, suggesting a relatively low rate of recent star formation. The galaxy's shape is moderately elongated, leaning towards a cigar-like appearance. There's an observed lack of significant distortions or tidal features, suggesting that it has not undergone any major merging events recently.
