The galaxy presents as a relatively faint, disk-shaped structure viewed nearly edge-on. A prominent dust lane bisects the galaxy, obscuring a significant portion of the central bulge. The bulge appears smooth and elongated along the plane of the disk. The outer regions of the disk fade gradually. The galaxy appears to be relatively isolated, with no immediately apparent signs of major interactions or tidal disturbances in its overall morphology. The integrated light suggests a mature stellar population, with a redder hue. Star formation appears to be present, but not at a high rate. There are no obvious spiral arms or other distinct features besides the smooth disk and obscuring dust lane.
