The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped structure. Its light is dominated by redder hues towards the central region, possibly indicating a concentration of older stellar populations. Fainter blue emissions are visible on the edges of the galaxy, potentially signifying ongoing, albeit subdued, star formation in the outer regions. The galaxy exhibits a smooth, relatively featureless morphology, with no clear spiral arms or prominent dust lanes visible in this image. A small, less luminous object is visible near the galaxy. It is uncertain whether this is a companion galaxy, background object, or a part of this particular galaxy.
