The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped structure. Its overall color is a relatively uniform bluish-white hue, suggesting a moderate population of young, hot stars and ongoing star formation. There is a brighter, somewhat diffuse central region. No distinct spiral arm structures or prominent dust lanes are readily apparent. The galaxy appears relatively undisturbed, showing no signs of a major ongoing merger, although there may be a hint of a minor disturbance or tidal interaction on one side. Its smooth morphology suggests a dominance of older stellar populations and a lack of significant recent mergers. The galaxy appears to be relatively small.
