The galaxy presents as a somewhat elongated structure with a moderate degree of smoothness. Its color appears primarily blueish-white, with a subtle central brightening, though internal structures are difficult to discern. There are some faint signs of disturbance. The galaxy does not appear to have a prominent central bulge, and the overall morphology suggests a disk galaxy seen at a relatively high inclination. The red-shifted nature suggests that this is an older, more mature galaxy. There are a few faint hints of blue in a possible spiral arm region. There are no clear signs of active star formation. It is likely that the galaxy is a late type spiral.
