The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical or lenticular type. The core displays a bright, concentrated luminosity, suggesting a high density of stars and/or an active galactic nucleus. The overall shape is elongated, appearing cigar-shaped rather than perfectly spherical, but with a smooth distribution of light that doesn't show signs of strong disturbances or tidal interactions. The color is predominantly yellowish-orange, implying an older stellar population. No prominent spiral arms or distinct dust lanes are visible. There's a subtle color gradient with a slight bluer tinge towards the periphery, which may indicate some minor star formation, but it remains primarily composed of older stars.
