The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, viewed nearly edge-on. A prominent central bulge is evident, appearing more luminous than the disk. The bulge exhibits a rounded morphology, typical of classical bulges. The disk component is flattened and elongated, oriented approximately horizontally in the image frame. Due to the near edge-on viewing angle, individual spiral arms are not clearly resolved, instead, the disk appears relatively smooth with an indication of some obscuring dust lanes visible near the central bulge. The galaxy exhibits a blue color, with a hint of more yellow light coming from the bulge. No evidence of a major merger is observed, suggesting the galaxy is relatively undisturbed. There may be a minor tidal disturbance on the outer edges of the disk.
