The galaxy presents as a largely smooth, centrally concentrated object. Its shape is elongated, approaching a cigar-like morphology. There's no obvious evidence of spiral arm structure or significant dust lanes, and the light distribution appears relatively uniform. Coloration suggests a population of older stars, with a reddish/yellowish hue dominating. No signs of active star formation regions are immediately apparent. The overall appearance is consistent with an elliptical galaxy or a lenticular galaxy viewed at an angle. There are no indications of tidal features or other signs of recent major merger activity. A potential minor disturbance cannot be entirely ruled out, though it is not obvious from the present image.
