The galaxy presents as an elongated, cigar-shaped structure. Its primary axis is significantly greater than its minor axis. A bulge is apparent, exhibiting a yellowish-orange hue suggestive of an older stellar population. Fainter blue regions can be seen beyond the central bulge, perhaps tracing the faint spiral arms or an extended disk component where star formation may be ongoing. The general smoothness of the light distribution suggests it's primarily composed of older stars. Based on its morphology, I suspect its star formation rate is relatively subdued. There is no immediately apparent evidence of ongoing mergers or major tidal disturbances affecting its overall structure, but a closer examination might reveal minor irregularities that hint at past interactions.
