The galaxy presents an elongated, cigar-shaped morphology. It appears predominantly smooth in structure, with a lack of readily discernible spiral arms or distinct features. The central region exhibits a higher concentration of light, suggesting the presence of a bulge. There is a subtle color gradient, with the central region appearing slightly yellower compared to the outer edges, indicative of an older stellar population concentrated towards the center. No significant signs of ongoing major mergers or strong tidal disturbances are evident, but there might be minor irregularities in the outskirts of the galaxy. Overall, this galaxy presents characteristics consistent with an elliptical galaxy seen edge-on.
