The galaxy presents as a concentrated, centrally brightened object, appearing yellowish-white in color. It exhibits a generally smooth morphology, lacking prominent spiral arms or distinct features such as bars or rings. Its overall shape is somewhat elongated, leaning toward a cigar-like appearance, with a relatively gradual decrease in surface brightness from the core outwards. There is a subtle hint of irregularity, possibly indicating minor disturbances or interactions, or potentially a minor merger. I estimate the light from the galaxy has been traveling for a significant period of time.
