The galaxy appears to be an elongated or cigar-shaped system, possibly an elliptical galaxy or a spiral galaxy viewed edge-on. It exhibits a relatively smooth profile with little evidence of strong spiral arm structure or significant dust lanes. The central region of the galaxy is the brightest, indicating a concentration of stars in the galactic nucleus. The outer regions gradually fade, suggesting a decrease in stellar density with increasing distance from the center. There is a suggestion of minor disturbances or tidal features, as evidenced by a slight asymmetry in the galaxy's shape and possible faint extensions or irregularities in the outer halo. The color gradient suggests a moderate amount of star formation, with bluer colors in some areas and redder colors in others.
