The galaxy appears as a centrally concentrated, luminous object with an elongated, cigar-like morphology. The core exhibits a reddish-orange hue, potentially indicative of an older stellar population. A bluer, less intense halo surrounds the core, suggesting the presence of younger stars or ionized gas. The galaxy exhibits a generally smooth appearance, with only subtle hints of any distinct features such as spiral arms or dust lanes. There is no obvious presence of any major merging activity, although minor disturbances cannot be ruled out based on this image alone. The overall structure points towards a galaxy with a dominant spheroid component.
