The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elongated structure. It appears to be an edge-on or highly inclined spiral, or possibly an elliptical galaxy. A bulge is visible in the center of the galaxy, appearing more luminous and yellowish in color. Dispersed throughout the galaxy are regions of blue hues, possibly indicating areas of recent star formation. The edges of the galaxy appear diffuse, fading into the background sky. No significant tidal features or signs of major disturbances are apparent, but subtle asymmetries could be present. Overall, the galaxy exhibits characteristics consistent with an evolved system.
