The galaxy presents as a relatively small, edge-on disk galaxy. A distinct dust lane bisects the galaxy's bulge, obscuring light and contributing to a reddish hue along the central plane. The bulge appears rounded and dominant. The overall structure suggests a relatively low rate of star formation based on the lack of bright blue regions indicative of recent starburst activity. There is no evidence of any major merging events, but possible indications of minor disturbances in the disk. The galaxy appears to be isolated.
