The galaxy presents as a moderately luminous spiral, likely seen edge-on, with a prominent central bulge. The bulge exhibits a yellowish-white hue, indicative of an older stellar population with a lower rate of star formation compared to the disk.  The disk component appears relatively smooth and unbroken, suggesting a lack of significant recent merger activity or major gravitational disturbances. There is a slight blueish tint towards the outer edges of the disk, indicating a region of recent or ongoing star formation. The lack of obvious dust lanes within the disk could imply a relatively face-on inclination, although the elongated shape contradicts this.  Alternatively, this could be an older, less dusty disk system. There is faint, diffuse halo surrounding the main body of the galaxy which blends smoothly into the background. The galaxy doesn't appear to be experiencing a major merging event, although there may be a small tidal tail or satellite galaxy visible on the side of the galaxy.
