The object appears to be a spiral galaxy, viewed at a near edge-on angle. It exhibits a flattened disk structure. The central bulge is subtle, not prominently bright or spheroidal, and elongated along the major axis. A faint dust lane is visible along the major axis, partially obscuring the light from the disk. There is some subtle indication of star formation, with faint blue tinges visible in the disk, but there are no distinct spiral arms visible. The galaxy exhibits a smooth overall appearance, with no major disturbances or merging features observed. The shape is somewhat cigar-like, meaning it appears elongated.
