The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, centrally concentrated system. Its morphology suggests a lack of significant spiral arm structure or prominent dust lanes. The galaxy has a diffuse halo extending outwards, with a slightly elongated shape. The light distribution indicates a relatively even mix of stellar populations, with no obvious regions of intense recent star formation. There is a subtle suggestion of minor tidal disturbance, but it is not a merging system. Overall, the visual appearance is consistent with a galaxy that is in transition between a late-type spiral and an early-type elliptical.
