The galaxy presents as a somewhat smooth, elongated structure. It appears to be an elliptical galaxy, with a cigar-like shape. There is a lack of defined spiral arms or a prominent central bulge. The color gradient suggests a concentration of older stars in the center, and regions of more active star formation at the one end. Light is more concentrated at the center but overall appears even and distributed smoothly throughout the galaxy. There is minor disturbances in the structure.
