The galaxy appears as a elongated, cigar-shaped structure. It exhibits a relatively smooth overall profile with a bright, concentrated central region. The color is a mixture of yellow and white, with the center of the galaxy showing a greater intensity of yellow. The edges of the galaxy are ill defined, with the light fading out gently from the main body. The image shows a lack of distinct spiral arms or other prominent features. There is no obvious dust absorption. Based on its morphology, this is likely an elliptical galaxy seen edge-on.
