The galaxy presents as an elongated elliptical form, with a smooth and diffuse light distribution. The central region exhibits a higher concentration of luminosity, appearing a pale yellow-orange hue. Moving outwards from the core, the luminosity gradually decreases. The outer regions of the galaxy have a very faint blue tint to them. No distinct spiral arms or prominent dust lanes are discernible. The overall structure suggests a relatively quiescent, evolved system, indicative of a morphology leaning towards an elliptical galaxy classification. There appears to be no evidence of significant ongoing merger activity or strong tidal interactions. The projected shape is noticeably cigar-like, suggesting that this galaxy is not being viewed face on.
