The galaxy presents as a smooth, elongated structure, suggesting an elliptical or lenticular morphology. The light distribution appears relatively uniform across the main body of the galaxy, with a concentration of yellowish-white light towards the center, potentially indicating an older stellar population. The galaxy exhibits a "cigar" shape with the ratio of the major to minor axis indicating a significant flattening. There is a subtle blueish tint on the edges, perhaps due to the presence of some younger, bluer stars. No distinct spiral arms, dust lanes, or other prominent features typically associated with spiral galaxies are discernible. Overall, the galaxy appears undisturbed, with no signs of ongoing major mergers or tidal interactions.
