The galaxy appears as a moderately bright, elongated structure. Its overall color is yellowish-white, concentrated towards the center, suggesting an older stellar population and a relatively low rate of current star formation. The galaxy exhibits a smooth, featureless morphology, with no apparent spiral arms or dust lanes visible. Its shape is cigar-like, significantly longer than it is wide. There is no visible evidence of any major ongoing merger activity. Minor disturbances cannot be ruled out.
