The galaxy appears as an elongated, cigar-shaped structure. Its morphology is generally smooth with a notable lack of defined spiral arms or a prominent central bulge. There is a color gradient visible across the galaxy; the central region appears more yellow/orange. The outer edges of the galaxy exhibit a bluer hue, suggesting the presence of younger stellar populations or ongoing star formation in these regions, although the overall star formation rate appears low. No distinct dust lanes or features indicative of active galactic nuclei are readily apparent in this image. The light distribution seems even and undisturbed, pointing to a lack of recent major mergers.
