The galaxy presents a generally elliptical morphology. It has a smooth appearance, indicative of an older stellar population, though there is a slight bluer tinge on the outer edges that may suggest some minor active star formation. The central region exhibits a concentrated and brighter yellow hue, possibly indicative of a galactic bulge. The overall shape is somewhat elongated. There is a smaller, less luminous object in close proximity that could be a smaller companion galaxy. The relatively smooth profile and lack of obvious spiral arms further support the classification of this galaxy as an elliptical or lenticular type.
