The galaxy presents as a smooth, elliptical-shaped structure with a notable central bulge. It appears elongated, displaying a cigar-like morphology, with a major axis significantly larger than its minor axis. The light distribution is concentrated towards the center, indicating a higher density of stars in the galactic nucleus. The galaxy exhibits a generally redder color, suggesting an older stellar population and diminished star formation activity, with a slightly bluer hue in the outer regions. There are no prominent spiral arms or dust lanes visible. No signs of major tidal disturbances or ongoing mergers are immediately apparent. The overall impression is that of a relatively undisturbed, evolved galaxy.
