The galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy at a redshift of approximately 0.2, making it a distant object. It presents with a generally smooth light distribution, with no obvious spiral arms or significant dust lanes visible. The galaxy's shape is elongated, displaying a cigar-like morphology rather than a perfect sphere. The central region exhibits a higher surface brightness, suggesting a concentrated stellar population or potentially an active galactic nucleus, though this cannot be confirmed from the image alone. The color is dominated by a yellow-orange hue, indicative of an older stellar population with a lower rate of star formation. There is a possible hint of slight disturbance or asymmetry at one edge, perhaps indicating a minor interaction with another galaxy, but this is not definitive. No signs of major merging events are apparent. The overall impression is of a massive, evolved galaxy with minimal current star formation.
