The galaxy presents as a smooth, elongated structure with a notable cigar-shaped morphology. It appears as a dominant feature, suggesting a considerable mass. The light distribution indicates a central concentration of older stellar populations, exhibiting a yellowish hue that gradually fades towards the outer regions. Hints of bluer light towards the edges may suggest ongoing, albeit relatively low, star formation in the disk. There is no strong evidence of spiral arm structure or prominent dust lanes, and no significant tidal distortions indicating major merger activity. The overall impression is that of a relatively undisturbed, evolved system.
