The galaxy appears as a slightly elongated, diffuse structure with a notable central brightness concentration. The overall color is bluish, suggesting the presence of younger, hotter stars, although a hint of redder color is present as well. The shape is neither perfectly elliptical nor clearly spiral. There may be a hint of a disk-like structure, but any spiral arms are poorly defined or absent. Faint outer regions are present, fading into the background sky. There seems to be a second galactic structure nearby which may indicate a merger or disturbance event.
