This galaxy exhibits a generally smooth morphology, though a slight asymmetry in its structure is visible. Its overall shape is elongated, appearing cigar-shaped and notably elliptical. The galaxy presents a color gradient, transitioning from a bluer hue towards the outer regions to a more yellow-orange hue in the central bulge. This suggests a difference in stellar populations, with potentially older stars concentrated in the center. There's minimal evidence of spiral arm structure or significant dust lanes, further indicating a galaxy type characterized by a dominant bulge component. There are some slight disturbances on one side of the galaxy that could imply a minor interaction with another galaxy.
