This galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, presenting itself nearly edge-on from our point of view. There is a bright, concentrated central bulge, which displays a smooth, almost featureless appearance with the brightest luminosity. Fainter light extends away from the central region, indicating a galactic disc. There appears to be a very low concentration of dust, and no prominent structures such as spiral arms or large star-forming regions are discernible within the image. The overall color profile suggests a population of older stars. A very slight asymmetry in the extended structure suggests the possibility of a past minor interaction or disturbance, although it is not highly pronounced.
