The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped structure with a smooth overall appearance. There are few distinct features, and it appears relatively undisturbed. The primary body exhibits a color gradient, transitioning from a reddish hue at one end to a slightly greenish hue at the opposite end. The color distribution indicates an older stellar population is at one pole, and the other pole has recent star formation. A faint companion galaxy is visible at some distance from the main galaxy. It appears to be a minor disturbance of some kind. It would be helpful to get a spectral reading of this object to understand its composition better. The light from this galaxy has been redshifted by 0.146918, indicating it is relatively far away. Given the smoothness and color profile, this is likely an elliptical galaxy with some residual star formation at one pole.
