The galaxy presents as an elliptical morphology, appearing elongated with a cigar-like shape. It exhibits a smooth profile, with a concentrated, bright central bulge that graduates into a diffuse halo. The galaxy demonstrates a color gradient; the core displays a yellowish-orange hue, transitioning to a bluer color in the outer regions, suggesting a mix of older stellar populations centrally and areas of younger star formation peripherally. There is an absence of defined spiral arms or prominent dust lanes. Marginal visual disturbances are present within the outskirts, suggesting potential minor gravitational interactions or past merger events. Overall, the galaxy appears as a mature system with ongoing, albeit subdued, star formation in its outer reaches.
