The galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy, exhibiting a generally smooth and featureless morphology. It has an elongated, cigar-like shape with the major axis oriented roughly horizontally in the image. The light distribution suggests a centrally concentrated bulge, with luminosity decreasing gradually outwards. There is little evidence of spiral arms or prominent dust lanes. The color profile indicates a redder hue overall, consistent with an older stellar population. Faint blue light is seen at the center of the bulge. There is no obvious sign of tidal disturbances or ongoing merger activity.
