The galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy. It exhibits a relatively smooth and featureless morphology. Its shape is elongated, resembling a cigar, suggesting a significant ellipticity. The central region shows a concentrated, bright core, which fades outwards into a diffuse halo. The color gradient suggests an older stellar population, with the core displaying a reddish/yellowish hue, transitioning to slightly bluer tones in the outer regions. This color gradient may suggest ongoing, but low level, star formation in the outskirts of the galaxy. No obvious signs of spiral arms, dust lanes, or major disturbances are apparent, indicating a lack of recent major merger activity. Overall, the galaxy seems to be a relatively undisturbed, evolved system.
