The galaxy exhibits a distinct disk morphology, viewed at a near edge-on inclination. A prominent central bulge dominates the core of the galaxy, displaying a smooth, concentrated luminosity profile. Fainter spiral arm structures appear to emanate from the bulge, extending outwards into the galactic disk. The disk itself shows a relatively smooth texture, suggesting a lack of significant dust lanes or distinct star-forming regions. The overall color of the galaxy appears reddish-yellow, which could indicate an older stellar population with lower rates of current star formation, consistent with an elliptical classification. A slight asymmetry is present in the disk, hinting at possible tidal interactions or minor merging events in its past.
