This galaxy presents as an edge-on spiral or lenticular galaxy. A prominent bulge dominates the central region, exhibiting a relatively smooth texture with a slight boxy appearance. The disk is thin and elongated, displaying a clear dust lane obscuring portions of the bulge along the mid-plane. The outer regions of the disk appear faint and diffuse. The color gradient shifts from a yellowish hue in the bulge, suggestive of an older stellar population, to a redder tint along portions of the dust lane. No obvious signs of strong star formation are apparent in the disk, though there are possibly some faint blue regions mixed in, suggesting some areas with younger stellar populations. The overall structure suggests a relatively quiescent galaxy with a mass greater than 10^10 solar masses.
