The galaxy appears as a centrally concentrated, luminous object, exhibiting a yellowish hue in its core region. The galaxy is elongated, with an approximate ratio of its major to minor axis estimated around 2:1. The outer regions of the galaxy display a fainter, bluer tinge, suggesting a component of younger stellar populations, although the dominant color is generally redder. No clear spiral arm structure or prominent dust lanes are discernible. There is some apparent minor disruption or asymmetric appearance which may indicate recent or ongoing interaction with a smaller galaxy. Overall the galaxy appears elliptical, or perhaps an early type spiral galaxy.
