The galaxy presents a generally smooth morphology, with a slightly elongated, cigar-like shape. A central bulge is visible, exhibiting a yellowish-orange hue, possibly indicating an older stellar population. The outer regions display a fainter, bluish-white color, potentially suggesting ongoing star formation, although not at a prodigious rate. There is no apparent spiral structure or significant dust lane obscuration visible in this image. The galaxy appears relatively undisturbed, showing no signs of major mergers or strong tidal interactions.
