The galaxy exhibits a largely smooth morphology, appearing as a single, relatively uniform structure. Its overall shape is elongated, reminiscent of a cigar, with a high degree of central concentration. A bright, yellowish core dominates the galaxy's center, suggesting a dense population of older stars. This central region gradually fades into a fainter, bluer halo, although this halo is not very prominent or well-defined. There are no distinct spiral arms, bars, or other features typically associated with disk galaxies. No significant tidal disturbances or signs of a major ongoing merger event are readily apparent. There might be some subtle color variations within the halo, potentially indicating regions of recent star formation, but these are not sharply delineated. The galaxy appears to be fairly isolated, with no immediately obvious nearby companions that would suggest strong gravitational interactions.
