The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped structure. A bright, concentrated central bulge dominates the galaxy's core, exhibiting a yellowish-white hue. Extending outward from the bulge, fainter, bluer regions are visible. The overall color gradient suggests a transition from older stellar populations in the core to potentially younger populations in the outer regions. The galaxy appears relatively smooth in texture, with no distinct spiral arms or prominent dust lanes immediately apparent in this image. The galaxy's morphology indicates an elliptical galaxy. There may be recent star formation in the galaxy due to the color gradient.
