The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped object. It appears to be relatively smooth in texture with a brighter central region. There is some indication of possible faint spiral arm structure, particularly at the edges, however this is uncertain. The color profile indicates a slightly bluer region towards the center and along its major axis with a more red hue on its extreme outer edges. The redder hue on the galaxy's outer edges could suggest an older stellar population dominating in those areas. There do not appear to be any signs of major disturbances or mergers occurring with other galaxies, and there are no obvious tidal tails or streams. Overall, it gives the impression of a relatively isolated system with modest star formation, concentrated towards its core.
