This galaxy presents as an edge-on spiral. A prominent dust lane bisects the galaxy's major axis, obscuring a significant portion of the central bulge and disk. The bulge itself appears elongated, possibly boxy in shape, with a concentration of yellow light indicating an older stellar population. The disk component exhibits a distinct blue hue at the edges, suggesting ongoing star formation in the spiral arms. These arms appear tightly wound and closely associated with the central bulge. There is no obvious evidence of a recent or ongoing major merger event, although some minor asymmetry is present in the disk structure.
