The galaxy presents as a disk-shaped system, viewed nearly edge-on from our perspective. The central region exhibits a bright, concentrated bulge, transitioning smoothly in intensity towards the outer disk. The color profile suggests an aging stellar population, predominantly showing redder hues, particularly concentrated in the bulge, potentially indicative of older, cooler stars. The disk component shows a more dispersed light profile, with subtle variations in color suggesting some ongoing, but limited, star formation, or perhaps the presence of dust lanes obscuring some regions of the galaxy. There is no indication of significant spiral arm structure or major disturbances to the overall morphology. The smooth appearance of the galaxy suggests a relatively stable and quiescent system, with no major ongoing merger events. The light distribution fades gradually toward the edges of the disk, making it challenging to define precise boundaries.
