This galaxy presents as an edge-on spiral system. A prominent dust lane bisects the galaxy, obscuring much of the stellar light in the central region. There is some evidence of minor distortions in the disk, which is otherwise relatively smooth. There's a hint of blue light, suggesting some ongoing star formation, particularly in the outer regions of the disk. The central bulge appears relatively small and faint. There is no clear indication of a strong bar structure, nor is there any visible evidence of a major merger event.
