The galaxy appears to be an intermediate type, exhibiting characteristics of both elliptical and spiral galaxies. The overall shape is elongated, approaching a cigar shape, although with hints of a more rounded profile in certain regions. The central region displays a smooth, concentrated brightness, suggesting a significant bulge component. Fainter, diffuse features extend outwards, possibly representing a disrupted disk or tidal features. There is evidence of possible minor disturbances or interactions due to the slightly asymmetric outer structure, but no major ongoing merger event is immediately apparent. Color gradients are visible within the galaxy, with the central region appearing slightly redder than the outer regions, potentially indicative of an older stellar population in the bulge. However, there appears to be a blue component present in the galaxy as well. The presence of a smooth fraction is higher than that of a featured fraction suggesting more of an elliptical component to this galaxy.
