The galaxy appears to be an elliptical or lenticular galaxy, exhibiting a smooth, relatively featureless morphology with a high degree of central concentration. It presents an elongated shape, leaning towards being classified as cigar-shaped. The primary color appears to be a yellowish-orange hue, suggesting a stellar population dominated by older, redder stars. There is a subtle color gradient across the galaxy, with the central regions displaying a slightly more intense yellow-orange compared to the outer regions which appear subtly bluer. This might indicate a slight variation in stellar population or dust content. The galaxy does appear to be undergoing a potential merging event, which might contribute to its cigar-like shape.
