The galaxy presents as an elongated, disk-shaped structure, viewed nearly edge-on. A prominent central bulge is visible, appearing brighter and more concentrated than the surrounding disk. The bulge exhibits a smooth, rounded morphology. The disk component of the galaxy shows evidence of dust lanes or other obscuring material, particularly along the mid-plane. There is a slightly asymmetrical appearance to the disk, with a subtle indication of warping or tidal disturbance. The overall color of the galaxy is reddish, which could indicate an older stellar population, particularly within the bulge.
