The galaxy presents as a moderately luminous object with a distinct morphology. It is elongated, exhibiting a cigar-like shape. The light distribution suggests a central bulge that is not sharply defined, but rather blends into the surrounding disk. A significant portion of the galaxy appears relatively smooth, with a higher concentration of light in the central regions. There's a clear color gradient from the central region outwards. The core appears redder in color and seems to exhibit older stellar populations. Towards the outer regions, the galaxy appears bluer, hinting at ongoing or recent star formation. Some asymmetry is present, potentially indicative of a minor gravitational interaction or internal disturbances. Overall, the galaxy does not show strong evidence of a major merger.
