This galaxy exhibits an elongated, cigar-shaped morphology. A notable feature is the prominent central bulge displaying a yellowish hue, suggesting a population of older, redder stars. A less defined, bluish disk surrounds the bulge. The blue color indicates areas of more active star formation or a population of younger, hotter stars. There is no clear spiral arm structure readily apparent, and the overall appearance is relatively smooth, with only minor irregularities or disturbances visible. The galaxy's light is somewhat diffused, indicating a smooth transition in luminosity from the core outwards. The galaxy's shape appears highly elliptical, with a high degree of axial asymmetry.
