The galaxy presents as an edge-on spiral system, with a prominent dust lane bisecting the luminous disk. The bulge appears smooth and elongated, with a rounded morphology. Star formation may be occuring, but appears to be occurring at a low rate, given the redder color and lack of obvious blue star-forming regions. The galaxy shows no signs of significant interaction or recent merger events, and appears undisturbed. The system is relatively compact, with an estimated half-light radius of approximately 4.6 kpc.
