The galaxy appears to be a lenticular or possibly a spiral galaxy seen edge-on. Its shape is elongated, with a high axis ratio, suggesting a flattened structure viewed at a significant inclination. There is a subtle central bulge that is more concentrated, with a brighter, yellowish hue. The disk shows a faint, dusty appearance. The galaxy lacks prominent spiral arms or strong star-forming regions, indicating a relatively quiescent state of star formation. The color gradient suggests an older stellar population with less ongoing star formation compared to typical spiral galaxies.
