The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped object, exhibiting a dominant bulge component with a smooth, concentrated light profile. The light from the bulge is redder in color, possibly indicating an older stellar population. A disk component is present, although its features are not well-defined. There appears to be some minor disturbances visible, but the galaxy is generally undisturbed. No major mergers are apparent, and the morphology is not completely smooth. Some star formation may be occurring, but the smooth appearance of the disk suggests the star formation rate is not extremely high. The overall impression is that of a massive galaxy transitioning toward a more passive state.
