This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, lenticular or early-type spiral galaxy, seen at a high inclination. Its overall shape is elongated, resembling a cigar shape. The central bulge is prominent and exhibits a yellowish-white color, suggesting an older stellar population. The disk appears relatively featureless with a bluer color compared to the central bulge. The disk is smoothly connected to the bulge. There is no evidence of any major merging events or significant tidal disturbances. Based on the observed morphology, the galaxy is undergoing, or has undergone, a period of low star formation.
