The galaxy presents an overall morphology that is largely smooth and somewhat elongated. The central region exhibits a brighter, more concentrated luminosity, suggestive of a bulge. There is faint evidence of a disk structure, but the resolution makes it difficult to ascertain details such as spiral arms or distinct dust lanes. The galaxy appears to be undergoing some sort of interaction or disturbance. There is asymmetry in the outer regions. There is a region where the galaxy appears to be undergoing a merging event, and appears to be slightly redder in color, perhaps indicating an older stellar population. This red region is offset from the galactic center. There is not strong evidence of a recent major merger, the smoothness of the central bulge suggests a relatively settled morphology or a merger that happened some time ago, but not a major one.
