The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elliptical or lenticular structure. Its morphology appears largely undisturbed, without prominent spiral arms or significant tidal features suggesting a recent major merger. The light distribution exhibits a centrally concentrated bulge with a gradual decrease in surface brightness towards the outer regions. The core region appears yellow and could indicate an older stellar population, whilst the outer regions are a pale, slightly bluer color, suggesting younger stars are present. The galaxy is elongated, being cigar-shaped. There are no indications of a dust lane or any on-going major starburst activity. Its moderate redshift suggests it resides at a considerable cosmological distance. Overall, the galaxy appears to be a massive, relatively evolved system undergoing low levels of star formation.
