The galaxy presents as a somewhat flattened disk-shaped structure with a discernible central bulge. It is oriented at a near-edge-on inclination relative to the line of sight. The central bulge exhibits a yellowish-white hue, suggesting a population of older stars. The disk component shows a more bluish tint, particularly towards the outer edges, possibly indicating regions of ongoing star formation. The overall light distribution is relatively smooth. There is slight asymmetry in the dust lanes.
