This galaxy exhibits a prominent, centrally concentrated bulge. The bulge region appears relatively smooth and homogenous in color and texture, suggesting an older stellar population. A faint, diffuse disk component surrounds the bulge, extending further horizontally than vertically. There appears to be some asymmetry within the disk, perhaps indicative of tidal interactions or an ongoing minor merger event, as evidenced by an irregularity that appears to protrude out of the disk. There may be some dust lanes visible near the edges of the galaxy, but are difficult to discern. Overall, the galaxy has a flattened, elongated shape when taking into account its disk.
