The galaxy exhibits a distinctly elongated, cigar-shaped morphology. It appears relatively smooth in texture, lacking prominent spiral arms or significant dust lane structures. The color profile suggests a dominant population of older stars, with a reddish hue concentrated centrally. There is a hint of bluer light towards the edges, potentially indicating some ongoing, albeit subdued, star formation activity in these regions. No major signs of tidal disruption or interaction with a companion galaxy are evident, suggesting the object is relatively isolated and undisturbed. The overall appearance suggests a lenticular or possibly an elliptical galaxy viewed edge-on.
