The galaxy presents as a somewhat elongated, lenticular-like object, with a smooth, centralized bulge. The overall color is a yellowish-orange hue, suggesting a population of older stars, with a slight bluer tinge visible near the edge of the disk. The morphology suggests it is likely not a spiral galaxy, or that any spiral arms it may have once possessed are now tightly wound or indistinct, possibly due to its classification as "cigar shaped." The lack of obvious dust lanes or significant patchiness supports the classification as smooth. No indications of a recent major merger are observed, suggesting that the galaxy is relatively isolated and quiescent. There is a slight blue gradient from center to edge. The size would lead to this classification, a larger more mature galaxy.
