The galaxy appears as an elongated, disk-shaped structure, oriented approximately edge-on relative to the observer. A dust lane is visible, bisecting the galaxy's profile and obscuring some of the starlight from the galactic bulge. The bulge itself presents a somewhat diffuse and amorphous appearance. There are potential signs of minor tidal disturbance or interaction. There is some irregularity in the disk's morphology, indicating minor warping or asymmetry. The disk exhibits a relatively smooth appearance overall.
