The galaxy presents as a well-defined elliptical morphology, exhibiting a generally smooth texture. The colour is noticeably redder overall, with the core appearing more intensely yellow/orange in hue. There is a subtle elongation to the galaxy's shape, suggestive of a cigar-like appearance. I see no clear evidence of spiral arms or significant dust lanes. The general appearance suggests an older stellar population and a lower star formation rate. There is no obvious sign of any major merger event.
