This galaxy presents as a somewhat elongated, cigar-shaped object, indicative of an elliptical morphology. It exhibits a bright, concentrated central bulge, appearing yellowish-white in color, suggesting an older stellar population. The outer regions of the galaxy appear fainter and bluer, perhaps indicating some ongoing or recent star formation in the disk component, though it could also be an artifact. There is a suggestion of a disk-like structure surrounding the bulge, but it is not clearly defined. The edges of the galaxy fade gradually into the background, lacking sharp boundaries. There do not appear to be any prominent spiral arms or obvious signs of a major merger event. The galaxy appears relatively smooth overall, with no significant dust lanes visible.
