The galaxy presents as an edge-on disk galaxy with a prominent central bulge. The bulge appears to be smoothly rounded, with no apparent boxy structure. There is a relatively high degree of dust obscuration along the plane of the disk. The galaxy appears yellowish-orange in color, suggesting a population of older stars. There is no readily apparent evidence of ongoing major merging activity or significant tidal disturbances, with only minor disturbances potentially present in the disk structure. The overall appearance suggests a relatively quiescent galaxy with little current star formation.
