The galaxy presents as a single, somewhat elongated object with a smooth appearance. It is mostly a yellow-orange hue with the a brighter, almost white center. The galaxy appears to be relatively undisturbed, without strong evidence of spiral arms or significant irregularities in its structure. Some minor disturbances appear to be present and this may be evidence of a minor interaction with another galaxy. The shape could be described as being somewhere between round and cigar-shaped.
