The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elongated object. Its morphology appears to be primarily elliptical, and possesses a cigar shape. The central region exhibits a higher luminosity, with a concentration of light in the galactic nucleus. There is a gradual decrease in light intensity as one moves outwards from the center towards the periphery. The overall color profile suggests a population of older stars and relatively little active star formation. The galaxy appears largely undisturbed, with no major signs of mergers or tidal interactions. There is a faint disk-like structure barely visible.
