The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elongated object, likely an elliptical galaxy, or a spiral galaxy viewed edge-on. There is a central, brighter region indicating a core or bulge. The color gradient suggests a higher concentration of older stars towards the center, appearing yellowish. The outer regions show bluer hues, possibly indicating some ongoing star formation, but this is less prominent. There is no obvious spiral structure visible, nor any significant signs of major disturbance or ongoing merger activity, though some minor irregularity cannot be ruled out. The overall shape is somewhat cigar-like, with the light being concentrated toward the center.
