The galaxy presents as a relatively luminous, disk-shaped structure seen at an oblique angle. The nucleus appears bright and concentrated, showing a yellow hue, possibly indicative of an older stellar population or dust obscuration. A flattened, extended disk surrounds the nucleus, oriented roughly horizontally in the image. There is a slight bluing of the disk, but it may be that dust is causing the observed color. There are hints of non-uniformity within the disk but no obvious spiral arm structure is visible, or has possibly been disrupted. The shape is somewhat in between round and cigar shaped. The galaxy has a smooth appearance, though there is slight disturbance in the outer regions that could be evidence of minor interactions with smaller galaxies. Given the color and shape, this galaxy is possibly an elliptical galaxy with remnants of a spiral disk.
