The galaxy presents a predominantly smooth appearance, with a noticeable lack of spiral arm structures or significant dust lanes. It exhibits an elongated, cigar-shaped morphology. The central region is significantly brighter and appears yellowish-white in color, suggesting a concentration of older stellar populations. The outer regions fade in intensity and transition towards a reddish hue. There is no apparent evidence of ongoing major merging activity, although subtle irregularities in the outer profile might indicate minor past interactions. The overall structure suggests an elliptical or lenticular galaxy type, dominated by evolved stars and exhibiting a relatively low star formation rate.
