The galaxy presents as a smooth, elongated object with a color profile leaning towards the red end of the spectrum. Its shape is distinctly cigar-like, exhibiting a high degree of ellipticity. There is no readily apparent disk structure or spiral arms visible. The galaxy's light is concentrated toward its center, suggesting a prominent bulge. I observe no signs of ongoing major mergers, though there might be a very subtle, minor disturbance in the outer regions. The galaxy's overall color and lack of distinct features suggest an older stellar population with suppressed star formation. The approximate diameter is estimated to be 5 kiloparsecs.
