The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical-like structure, with a notable central bulge that emits strongly in the redder wavelengths. The overall color suggests a population of older stars, particularly within the bulge. There's some hint of a fainter, bluer disk component, or possible ongoing star formation in the outer regions, but it does not dominate the galaxy's overall appearance. There is some indication of tidal disturbances or faint features that could be due to a past or ongoing minor merger event. The galaxy has a slightly elongated shape, tending toward a cigar-like morphology.
