The galaxy presents an elongated, somewhat cigar-shaped morphology. It displays a predominantly smooth appearance, with a notable lack of distinct spiral arm structures or prominent dust lanes visible in this image. The central region exhibits a concentration of light, suggestive of a bulge, which seems to transition smoothly into the outer regions. The color profile indicates an older stellar population, with a reddish hue dominating the central bulge, and a subtle shift towards bluer colors in the extended disk, hinting at more recent star formation activity in the periphery. There are no obvious signs of a major ongoing merger, though there is a slight asymmetry in the light distribution on one side that might suggest minor tidal disturbance or interaction. The galaxy appears relatively isolated, with no other large galaxies in its immediate vicinity.
