This galaxy presents as a faint, elongated object with a generally smooth appearance. The overall color profile appears to be bluish, with some evidence of a slight concentration of this blue light towards the galaxy's central region. The shape of the galaxy suggests it could be an edge-on spiral or a lenticular galaxy. No distinct spiral arms or prominent dust lanes are immediately discernible in the image. There is a subtle fading of light intensity as one moves from the central region outwards, with the outer edges appearing ill-defined. No obvious signs of active galactic nuclei or starburst activity, such as bright knots or irregularities, are immediately apparent. The relatively smooth texture and lack of significant features suggest that the galaxy may be relatively quiescent with no ongoing major mergers.
