The galaxy presents as a moderately luminous, elongated structure, likely an elliptical galaxy viewed at a significant angle. The core region exhibits a concentrated, yellowish-white glow, suggestive of an older stellar population with minimal ongoing star formation. The outer regions display a more diffuse, fainter halo, showing hints of a bluer color, potentially indicating the presence of younger stars. The overall shape is cigar-like, and there's no obvious evidence of strong tidal interactions or major disturbances, though subtle asymmetries might suggest minor gravitational interactions. The galaxy appears relatively isolated.
