The galaxy presents as a lenticular, elongated structure with a dominant bulge. The central region exhibits a yellow-orange hue, suggestive of an older stellar population. Evidence of a disk is present, though it is relatively faint and lacks defined spiral arm structure. The galaxy's smooth, cigar-like morphology suggests that it is nearing the end of its spiral phase. Faint blue light appears to be emitted from the outer disk, showing that star formation has recently occurred in this area, though at a relatively low rate. A lack of significant tidal features implies that the galaxy is not currently undergoing a major merger event, though minor disturbances might be present.
