The galaxy presents an overall elongated, cigar-like shape. Its light profile appears smooth, lacking prominent spiral arms or distinct features typically associated with disk galaxies. The central region exhibits a high surface brightness, suggesting a concentrated nucleus. A gradual decrease in luminosity is observed moving outward from the core. The galaxy's color is predominantly a pale blue-white, potentially indicating a mix of stellar populations with a slight bias towards hotter, younger stars. There are no signs of ongoing major mergers or tidal disturbances, though minor asymmetries or subtle irregularities cannot be entirely ruled out with this image resolution. Based on these observations, it's likely this galaxy is either an elliptical galaxy viewed along its major axis or possibly a lenticular galaxy.
