The galaxy appears as a somewhat elongated, disk-like structure. Its central region exhibits a brighter, smoother profile, suggesting a concentrated stellar population or possible bulge. There's a noticeable color gradient within the galaxy, with a bluer hue towards one end of the disk and a shift towards redder tones in the opposite direction. This color variation implies differences in stellar populations and possibly active star formation regions. The galaxy's overall shape and color distribution hint at an ongoing or past interaction, potentially a minor merger or tidal disturbance, although the galaxy does not exhibit any major disturbances.
