The galaxy presents as a moderately bright, elongated structure with a discernible central bulge. The bulge region exhibits a yellowish-orange hue, indicative of an older stellar population. Surrounding the bulge is a more diffuse disk component, characterized by a bluish-white color, potentially signifying regions of ongoing star formation. The disk appears relatively smooth, with only subtle hints of spiral arm structure. The galaxy displays a notable departure from a perfectly circular shape, appearing cigar-shaped, suggesting it may be an elliptical galaxy. No significant tidal features or signs of major mergers are apparent upon visual inspection, although some minor disturbances in the outer regions cannot be entirely ruled out. The overall appearance suggests a galaxy with a mix of older and younger stellar populations, possibly transitioning between an elliptical and a spiral morphology.
