The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elongated structure. The central bulge appears bright and concentrated, with a whitish-yellow hue, possibly indicating an older stellar population. Fainter, bluish-white light emanates from the outer regions. The edges of the galaxy are not well-defined, suggesting a gradual decrease in stellar density with distance from the core. There is little evidence of distinct spiral arms or significant dust lanes, suggesting it is likely a galaxy with less prominent disk features. The galaxy's overall shape appears to be cigar-shaped. There is no visual evidence of any ongoing major mergers or significant tidal distortions. The color gradients suggest some level of ongoing star formation, with the bluer regions potentially indicating areas of more recent stellar birth.
