The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped structure, with a bright, concentrated central bulge. The orientation is such that we observe it at an oblique angle, not quite edge-on but displaying a clear major axis. A possible spiral arm structure is suggested by slightly uneven light distribution. The galaxy exhibits a noticeable color gradient, transitioning from a yellowish hue in the core to a bluer tinge towards its outer regions. A small, faint object is observed in proximity to one of the galaxy's outer reaches; the nature of the object is unknown, but might be a star cluster or another more distant galaxy. The overall form suggests a disk galaxy, likely with a notable bulge component. There are suggestions of dust lanes or more general areas of attenuation. The outskirts of the galaxy appear diffuse, lacking a sharp boundary.
