The galaxy presents as a flattened, disk-like structure, oriented approximately edge-on to our line of sight. A prominent central bulge is visible, exhibiting a yellowish-white hue, suggesting an older stellar population. The disk itself shows a bluer color gradient towards its outer edges, indicative of ongoing star formation activity within the spiral arms. There are suggestions of dust lanes or other obscuring material within the disk, causing some mottled appearance. There is no evidence of a significant interaction or recent merger event, with a smooth overall structure and no obvious tidal tails or streams.
