This galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, cigar-shaped structure. The central region exhibits a concentrated luminosity, appearing yellowish, which may indicate an older stellar population. The outer regions of the galaxy show a lower surface brightness with a slight bluish tinge. The galaxy appears to be a disk galaxy, based on the shape of it, but is likely an edge-on or highly inclined disk galaxy. There is no obvious active star forming regions. There is no clear evidence of any major mergers or tidal disturbances, although there may be evidence of minor disturbances.
