The galaxy appears to be a flattened, elongated system, displaying a cigar-like morphology. A central bulge is visible, exhibiting a yellowish hue, possibly indicative of an older stellar population. The surrounding disk shows a color gradient, transitioning from yellowish near the center to bluer hues towards the edges. One region, in particular, shows a distinct bluish color, which could possibly indicate a concentration of younger, hotter stars. There is no clear indication of spiral arm structure or a prominent dust lane. The overall structure suggests a relatively smooth morphology. There is no clear indication of any major merging events. Minor disturbances cannot be ruled out.
