The galaxy appears to be a moderately luminous, elongated system. Its overall shape suggests a disk galaxy seen at a significant inclination, approaching edge-on. The central bulge is prominent and exhibits a yellowish-orange hue, potentially indicating an older stellar population.

There is evidence of a fainter, bluer structure in the galaxy, suggesting the presence of younger, star-forming regions, although these features are not sharply defined. There may be some minor gravitational disturbance, or possible tidal features, implying a past or ongoing interaction with another galaxy. The galaxy does not appear to be undergoing a major merging event. The spiral arms are not clearly resolved, likely due to the high inclination and the distance of the galaxy. The galaxy's light profile seems relatively smooth overall, with some subtle features.
