The galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy, characterized by a smooth, diffuse light profile. The light is more concentrated towards the center, indicating a higher stellar density in the galactic nucleus. The overall shape seems elongated, tending towards a cigar shape. There are indications of minor tidal disturbances or interactions, suggesting a possible past merger event or gravitational interaction with another galaxy. The galaxy's color suggests an older stellar population, with a redder hue indicating a lack of ongoing active star formation.
