The galaxy presents as a moderately bright, elongated object. It appears to be relatively smooth in overall structure, with a suggestion of a central bulge. A faint, diffuse disk structure is suspected surrounding the bulge. There is a hint of some possible disturbances within the disk but no clear major merger events are taking place. The morphology is somewhere between round and cigar-shaped. The light distribution is centrally concentrated, but with a fainter, extended halo. Colors appear slightly redder in the central region, possibly due to an older stellar population, and slightly bluer in the disk, which suggests ongoing star formation. Overall, the galaxy presents as a fairly normal spiral or lenticular galaxy at a moderate distance.
