The galaxy presents as an edge-on spiral. A prominent dust lane bisects the galaxy, obscuring light from the central regions. The galactic bulge is not particularly pronounced, appearing relatively small. The disk exhibits a relatively smooth texture. There is a subtle color gradient from the central region to the outer edges of the disk, with the core appearing more yellow than the outer disk, which exhibits a faint blue hue. The spiral arms are not clearly resolved due to the edge-on orientation, but subtle variations in brightness along the disk may indicate their presence. No obvious signs of recent major merger activity are apparent. The galaxy exhibits a notable inclination relative to our line of sight, with its major axis oriented approximately along the horizontal plane of the image.
