The galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, disk-dominated system, viewed at an oblique angle. A bright, concentrated central bulge or core is evident. Moving outward from the core, there's a gradual decrease in luminosity within the disk. There's some indication of a spiral structure within the disk, although it is not sharply defined. The disk itself seems somewhat elongated or cigar-shaped, with the major axis extending horizontally across the image. There is no immediately apparent evidence of a major merger event or significant tidal disturbances in this image, though there might be signs of a minor disturbance. The overall color of the galaxy appears to be slightly reddish, which could imply an older stellar population and reduced star formation activity.
