This galaxy presents as an elongated, disk-dominated system, viewed almost entirely edge-on. A central bulge is present and appears to be rather large and rounded. There is a hint of obscuring dust along the midplane of the disk. The bulge exhibits a yellowish hue. The disk surrounding the bulge seems to fade to a bluish color on each end. The lack of visible spiral arms and the smooth appearance of the disk suggest a relatively ordered, mature galaxy. There are no signs of active galactic nuclei activity or major disturbances indicative of recent mergers.
