The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy viewed nearly edge-on. A prominent dust lane bisects the galaxy, obscuring the central bulge. The bulge itself exhibits a yellowish hue, suggesting an older stellar population. Fainter, bluer light extends outwards from the central region along the plane of the disk, indicating regions of younger, star-forming activity. There are hints of some possible disturbances to its morphology, though these appear to be minor. It has moderate mass and a lower star formation rate.
