The galaxy presents as a faint, elongated structure, indicative of a disk galaxy viewed at a near edge-on orientation. A distinct dust lane is not clearly visible, but the morphology suggests obscuration consistent with an edge-on disk. The central bulge appears relatively small and not particularly luminous.  There are suggestions of possible disruptions to the galaxy's morphology, specifically possible tidal tails on each side of the central structure suggesting a merger with one or more nearby galaxies. The overall color suggests a population of older stars, with perhaps limited ongoing star formation. The blue color in the central core region may mean the presence of some younger stars and star formation.
