The galaxy presents as an edge-on spiral with a prominent central bulge. The bulge exhibits a concentrated luminosity, appearing yellowish, indicative of an older stellar population. The disk appears relatively thin and elongated, with hints of substructure potentially attributable to dust lanes or spiral arm fragments. The outer regions of the disk are fainter and bluer in coloration, suggesting the presence of younger, hotter stars. The overall shape demonstrates a significant ellipticity, consistent with a high inclination angle relative to our line of sight. There may be slight tidal distortion indicating potential past gravitational interactions.
