The galaxy appears as a relatively smooth object, with a shape that is elongated or cigar-shaped. There is little evidence of spiral arm structure or significant dust lanes. The galaxy's color is predominantly a pale blue, which is consistent with ongoing, low-level star formation. There is a slight hint of a minor disturbance in its structure, but overall the morphology is not suggestive of a major merger. It seems likely to be an early-type galaxy that has recently interacted with another galaxy.
