The galaxy presents as a somewhat smooth, elongated structure with a high cigar shape fraction. Its color profile indicates a generally older stellar population, with a central concentration of yellowish-white light and fainter bluish hues visible at the periphery. This suggests ongoing, though potentially low, levels of star formation activity in the outer regions. There are faint disturbances or features present that could be indicative of minor tidal interactions with other galaxies. Overall the galaxy displays characteristics consistent with a late-type spiral.
