The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped structure, likely an elliptical galaxy viewed at an angle. There is a relatively smooth light distribution, with a concentration of redder light towards the galaxy's central region, which is likely the bulge. Fainter, slightly bluer hues are observed at the edges of the galaxy, potentially indicating regions of more recent, albeit subdued, star formation. No distinct spiral arms or bars are discernible; instead, the light profile is indicative of an older stellar population and a generally quiescent galaxy. There is no evidence of any major ongoing merging activity or significant tidal disturbances.
