The galaxy appears to be an elliptical or lenticular type. Its morphology is generally smooth and featureless with a concentrated central bulge. There is a clear transition of color from the center to the outer edges of the galaxy. The central region emits light primarily in the yellow-orange wavelengths, whereas the edges appear bluer in color. The overall shape is elongated with a cigar-like appearance. There is no evidence of significant ongoing mergers or major disturbances, however a small amount of tidal distortion is seen at the outskirts of the galaxy.
