The galaxy presents a moderately elliptical morphology, appearing nearly edge-on with a high degree of smoothness. Some asymmetry is present, although difficult to distinguish due to image resolution. The central bulge is prominent, exhibiting a relatively high surface brightness. The galaxy's color gradient suggests an older stellar population concentrated within the bulge, transitioning toward slightly bluer hues at the outer edges, potentially indicative of ongoing, but limited, star formation in these regions. There is little evidence of strong spiral arm structure or significant dust lanes. The overall structure appears relatively undisturbed, although the slight asymmetry suggests the possibility of a past, minor gravitational interaction. The galaxy displays a moderate red shift, indicating that it is at an intermediate cosmological distance from Earth. Based on estimated size, the galaxy is a medium-sized system.
