The galaxy presents as a flattened, disk-shaped system oriented approximately edge-on relative to our line of sight. The central bulge appears relatively bright and concentrated, exhibiting a yellowish-white hue. The surrounding disk is less luminous, with a more diffuse light distribution. There appears to be a slight asymmetry in the overall structure, perhaps indicative of weak tidal interactions or an irregular distribution of material within the disk. Subtle color variations across the disk suggest potential variations in stellar populations or dust content. No prominent spiral arm structures are readily discernible in this image. Overall, the galaxy appears to be a relatively quiescent system with a moderate level of star formation.
