The galaxy presents as a flattened, elongated structure viewed nearly edge-on. A prominent dust lane bisects the galaxy, obscuring a portion of the galactic plane. The bulge appears rounded and is concentrated in the center. There appears to be a minor disturbance in the disk structure as the disk seems disrupted, perhaps a sign of a past or ongoing interaction. The color distribution appears relatively uniform along the disk, exhibiting redder hues towards the midplane and bluer hues in the outer regions.
