This galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elongated structure, suggestive of an elliptical morphology. There is a concentration of light toward the center, indicative of a dense galactic nucleus. Moving outward from the core, the luminosity gradually decreases. The color profile appears to be relatively uniform across the galaxy, with a slight blue tint on the edges, which may imply low ongoing star formation, though it's unlikely. The overall shape is somewhat cigar-like and is unlikely to be undergoing any major merging events, however, a small disturbance cannot be ruled out.
