The galaxy presents as a lenticular or possibly edge-on spiral. The main body exhibits a relatively smooth luminosity profile, suggesting a significant bulge component. The light is concentrated towards the center, gradually fading towards the edges. There's a subtle color gradient, with a yellowish central region that may indicate an older stellar population. The outer regions appear slightly bluer, hinting at the presence of younger stars or star-forming regions, though these are not clearly resolved. The galaxy's shape is elongated, appearing cigar-shaped. There are no obvious signs of a recent major merger or significant tidal disturbances. Faint hints of a disk component appear to be present within the extended halo.
