The galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy, with a smooth, diffuse light distribution. Its overall shape is elongated, with a cigar-like appearance. The light is concentrated towards the center, becoming fainter towards the edges. There is a subtle color gradient across the galaxy, with the central region exhibiting a yellowish hue, transitioning to a bluer color in the outer regions. The galaxy does not display any apparent spiral arm structures or dust lanes, indicating a lack of significant ongoing star formation. There are no signs of a major ongoing merger, although minor disturbances are potentially present.
