The galaxy appears to be a lenticular or possibly an elliptical galaxy, based on its smooth, relatively featureless morphology. It exhibits a cigar-like shape, with an apparent high axial ratio, suggesting a view close to edge-on. There is a concentration of light toward the center. A slight color gradient is discernible, with the central bulge appearing more yellow and the outer regions showing a hint of bluer hues. This could imply that younger stars are in the outer region, while older stars are in the galactic bulge. The galaxy lacks any obvious spiral arm structure, strong dust lanes, or tidal features suggesting recent major interactions. There may be some minor disturbance, but the light distribution is quite smooth.
