The galaxy presents as a moderately luminous object with an elongated, cigar-shaped morphology. The central region exhibits a concentrated, bright core, suggesting a relatively high density of stars in the galactic nucleus. Fainter, diffuse extensions are observed at either end of the central region. These extensions may represent galactic arms or tidal features resulting from gravitational interactions. There is also a spherical, tightly packed structure with a yellowish hue located near the main body of the galaxy. It is unclear if this is another galaxy in interaction or a dense globular cluster. Colors are consistent with a population of older stars, but there is also evidence of ongoing, albeit moderate, star formation within the galaxy as indicated by bluer hues.
