The galaxy presents an elongated morphology, with a major axis likely several times larger than its minor axis. The galaxy exhibits a generally smooth light distribution, suggesting a relatively old stellar population. There is a distinct color gradient visible, with the central region appearing more yellow/orange compared to the bluer outer regions. This suggests a centrally concentrated population of older, redder stars, possibly indicating the presence of an evolved bulge. The bluer color in the outer regions could indicate more recent star formation, though the smoothness of the light profile argues against prominent spiral arms. There is also the hint of a tidal tail or perhaps another merger remnant along the lower edge of the galaxy, which could suggest that this galaxy is in the process of merging or has merged in the past. Further spectroscopic data is needed to verify and study the stellar population.
