The galaxy presents as an edge-on spiral, with a prominent central bulge that is elongated along the major axis of the galaxy. There is an extended, flattened disk. A dust lane appears to bisect the galaxy along its midplane, obscuring light from behind. The disk appears relatively smooth with a low surface brightness, the dust lane is patchy and indistinct. The bulge appears to be relatively round and dominant, with the disk being significantly less bright. The color of the bulge appears more yellow/orange than the disk, with a hint of bluer tones at the extreme ends of the disk. The ellipticity of the outer isophotes suggest a disk more elongated than the central bulge. No tidal features or nearby companion galaxies are apparent in this image.
