The galaxy presents as an edge-on spiral or lenticular galaxy. A prominent dust lane bisects the galaxy's central bulge, giving it a flattened appearance. The galaxy appears to exhibit low levels of star formation, and has a relatively old stellar population. Evident is a disturbed morphology suggestive of possible tidal interactions or a past merger event. Diffuse stellar material extends outward from the main galactic disk, forming a faint halo-like structure and plume extending towards the top of the image. The galaxy's light distribution is asymmetric and irregular, hinting at ongoing or recent gravitational disturbances.
