The galaxy presents a relatively smooth morphology with a centrally concentrated luminosity profile. It appears nearly edge-on from our vantage point, showing an elongated, cigar-like shape. There is a subtle blue tint to the central region with reddish color along the galactic plane suggesting some dust absorption. No distinct spiral arms or bar features are readily apparent. There is no evidence of major mergers or tidal disturbances within the immediate vicinity of the galaxy. It appears to be a relatively isolated system.
