The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped object with a smooth, diffuse appearance. The color gradient suggests a concentration of older stellar populations, with a reddish-yellow hue dominating the central region and a slight color shift to bluer tones towards the outer edges. There is no clearly defined spiral structure or distinct features like dust lanes or star-forming regions visible. The light distribution appears relatively even, lacking any prominent central bulge or nucleus. The absence of detailed features points towards an elliptical morphology, with the observed elongation likely indicating its intrinsic shape. Overall, the galaxy exhibits characteristics consistent with a mature, relatively quiescent system.
