The galaxy presents an elongated, cigar-like morphology, suggesting it is likely an elliptical galaxy viewed at an oblique angle, or possibly an edge-on spiral galaxy, however, the lack of a bulge or obvious spiral arms suggest the former. The galaxy exhibits a smooth, diffuse light distribution, with a central concentration that gently fades towards the edges. There is some apparent asymmetry in the outer regions, showing a slight warp. There is a hint of color gradient from the central region, where it seems slightly yellower/redder, to the outer edges, which appear bluer. The overall color suggests an older stellar population, as expected for an elliptical galaxy, but with the trace of bluer light, there is likely some recent star formation. The image does not show any prominent dust lanes or distinct features within the galaxy.
