The galaxy appears as an elongated, cigar-shaped structure. Its color profile is predominantly yellowish-orange, suggesting an older stellar population. The light distribution is relatively smooth and concentrated towards the center, with a gradual decrease in brightness towards the outer edges. There is a slight hint of a fainter, bluish halo surrounding the central region, potentially indicating the presence of younger, hotter stars in the outskirts, although this is not a dominant feature. No distinct spiral arms or dust lanes are discernible. The overall morphology suggests a galaxy undergoing passive evolution. There are no obvious signs of tidal disturbances or recent mergers, as its form seems largely undisturbed.
