The galaxy appears as a flattened, elongated system, with a distinct central bulge that appears reddish-orange in color. This central region transitions into a bluer, disk-like structure extending outwards on both sides. There are hints of dust lanes or other obscuring material within this disk, particularly along the edges, contributing to the galaxy's complex structure. The overall morphology suggests a spiral galaxy viewed at a high inclination, potentially close to edge-on. Star formation appears to be concentrated mostly in the disk but might be visible in the bulge. There may be a low level of ongoing star formation. The galaxy does not appear to be undergoing any major merging events or strong tidal disturbances, although subtle asymmetries or minor disturbances cannot be entirely ruled out based on this single image.
