The galaxy presents as a slightly elongated, cigar-shaped structure with a smooth, diffuse light distribution. The color profile suggests a dominant population of older stars, indicated by the overall redder hue, which fades to blue at the very edges. There is a subtle central concentration of light. While there's no obvious spiral arm structure or dust lanes, the galaxy appears to be a disk galaxy that is nearly edge on from our perspective. There are no apparent signs of recent major merger activity or significant tidal disturbances.
