The galaxy presents as a disk-shaped system viewed at a high inclination, nearing edge-on. A central bulge is apparent, exhibiting a yellow-orange hue, suggestive of an older stellar population with lower rates of ongoing star formation. Faint, blue-tinged regions are visible extending along the galactic plane, indicative of regions with younger, hotter stars. There is no visual evidence of a major ongoing merger, though subtle disturbances in the galactic disk cannot be entirely ruled out. The disk appears relatively smooth, lacking prominent spiral arm structures. The galaxy appears moderately luminous.
