The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, seen nearly edge-on. A prominent central bulge dominates the galaxy's structure, exhibiting a yellowish-white hue. Extending outwards from the bulge are faint spiral arms. These arms are bluish in color, suggesting the presence of younger, hotter stars. The galaxy appears elongated, exhibiting a cigar-like shape. There are hints of some minor asymmetry or disturbances in the outer regions of the disk, although there is no obvious major merger activity.
