The galaxy appears as a relatively smooth, centrally concentrated object. Its overall shape is elongated, with a high ellipticity suggesting a cigar-like morphology when viewed from our perspective. There are subtle variations in color, with a brighter, bluer central region. The outer regions of the galaxy gradually fade in intensity, blending into the background sky. The smooth texture, along with the central concentration of light, points to the classification of an early-type galaxy. There is no apparent presence of spiral arms. Faint evidence suggests the possibility of minor disturbance in shape, though these are extremely subtle and could be image artifacts. The overall red color may indicate moderate star formation, as well as some light reddening due to dust.
