The galaxy presents an elongated, cigar-like morphology. It appears relatively smooth in overall structure, with some indication of a central bulge. The color gradient transitions from bluer hues at the fringes of the galaxy to a more reddish-yellow towards the center, possibly indicating an older stellar population concentrated within the bulge. There is little evidence of significant spiral arm structure or prominent dust lanes. Some minor disturbances are present, which may indicate interactions or mergers.
