The galaxy presents as an elliptical or lenticular type, exhibiting a smooth, concentrated central bulge with a significant amount of light, and a fainter, more diffuse halo surrounding it. The overall shape appears elongated, but not to the degree of a highly flattened spiral. Color gradients are subtle, with a possible trend toward redder hues concentrated in the core region and bluer shades at the outer edges of the halo, suggesting older stellar populations in the center and possibly ongoing or recent star formation in the periphery. Faint indications of slight disturbances or asymmetries are observed in the outer halo. No obvious spiral arm structure or prominent dust lanes are visible.
