The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elongated structure. The light distribution indicates a concentration toward the central region, with a gradual decrease in luminosity towards the outer edges. The shape is decidedly cigar-shaped. There's no obvious presence of spiral arms or significant dust lanes. The galaxy exhibits a yellow-red hue, suggesting a stellar population dominated by older, redder stars and minimal ongoing star formation activity, which implies that this galaxy is not actively forming many stars. There is no obvious evidence for any major mergers, although the subtle irregularity of the outer edges may indicate minor disturbances. The overall impression is of an evolved system.
