The galaxy appears as a moderately luminous, disk-shaped structure with a noticeable central bulge. Its orientation is roughly edge-on relative to our line of sight. The central bulge exhibits a concentrated brightness, suggesting a high stellar density. The disk component of the galaxy shows a more diffuse and less intense light distribution compared to the bulge. There is a slight blue shift in the outer ranges of the disk, suggesting low levels of recent or ongoing star formation. The overall color gradient transitions from yellower hues in the bulge to slightly bluer tones in the outer disk. The galaxy doesn't show any clear signs of a recent or ongoing major merger event. Minor distortions in the galaxy's shape may indicate a previous minor disturbance event. The galaxy is cigar shaped, with no clear spiral arm structure visible, likely due to its edge-on orientation.
