This galaxy appears to be an edge-on spiral galaxy exhibiting a notable central bulge. The bulge displays a generally rounded morphology with a slight boxy appearance. Evidence suggests that the galaxy disk is oriented nearly perfectly edge-on from our vantage point. There is no obvious evidence of a major merger or significant tidal disturbance; however, there is some slight evidence of a minor disturbance or merger event. The galaxy displays a smooth, relatively symmetric profile along its major axis. Color gradients suggest a relatively old stellar population, particularly within the bulge.
