The galaxy presents as a generally smooth, elongated structure, likely a lenticular or elliptical galaxy seen edge-on, given its cigar-like shape. A concentration of older stellar populations appears towards the central bulge, indicated by the yellowish-orange hue. Fainter, bluer regions are visible extending from the central region along the major axis. The galaxy shows no clear evidence of a spiral arm structure, suggesting it is either devoid of or has very faint, tightly wound arms. No signs of ongoing major merger activity are evident, though minor disturbances cannot be ruled out. The galaxy appears to have a high degree of symmetry and lacks prominent dust lanes, indicative of a relatively undisturbed and evolved system. The galaxy's overall color suggests that it is dominated by older stars, but it is not a red and dead galaxy.
