The galaxy presents as a somewhat elongated structure, appearing cigar-shaped when viewed from our perspective. It exhibits a relatively smooth overall texture, suggesting an older stellar population. The central region displays a higher concentration of light, appearing almost uniformly bright, likely indicating a bulge component. While there is a subtle variation in color across the galaxy, with a slightly bluer tinge towards the outer regions of the disk, the lack of distinct spiral arms suggests a relatively low ongoing star formation rate. There is some slight disturbance in the galaxy's disk, which could be due to a minor interaction with another galaxy.
