The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, seen at an oblique angle to our line of sight, but is slightly distorted. It has a noticeable bulge with a generally smooth appearance, and a disk component that exhibits some features, but also shows hints of smoothness. The disk appears elongated, with a cigar-like shape. There may be some minor disturbance or gravitational interaction affecting its morphology.

The galaxy's color suggests ongoing star formation, although not overwhelmingly so. Its overall blue-green tint indicates the presence of young, hot stars. The distribution of light is somewhat uneven, potentially indicating variations in stellar density or dust obscuration within the disk. The galaxy is relatively compact in apparent size.
