The observed galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, presented at a nearly edge-on orientation relative to our line of sight. A prominent dust lane is visible, bisecting the galactic disk and obscuring some of the light from the far side.

The galaxy exhibits a somewhat elongated, diffuse bulge. Star formation appears to be active, with some patchy regions of bluer light and redder emission nebulae along the spiral arms on the left side. Some irregular structure is present within the disk. The overall morphology suggests the possibility of minor gravitational interactions or recent accretion events disrupting the spiral structure. There seems to be a diffuse halo surrounding the visible disk of the galaxy.
