This galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elongated structure, suggestive of an elliptical morphology. Its overall color appears to be predominantly blue, hinting at a population of younger, hotter stars. The luminosity distribution seems to be concentrated towards the central region of the galaxy, with a gradual decrease in brightness towards the outer edges. There is no apparent spiral arm structure or significant dust lane obscuration visible in this image. The galaxy exhibits a cigar-like shape, and no indications of major disturbances or ongoing mergers can be discerned.
