This galaxy appears to be an edge-on spiral, exhibiting a highly elongated morphology with a major axis of roughly 10 arcseconds. The disk of the galaxy is oriented almost perfectly along our line of sight, obscuring a clear view of any spiral arm structure. There is evidence of a central bulge with a yellow hue indicating an older stellar population with little ongoing star formation. The disk component shows a gradient in color, with the regions closest to the bulge appearing less blue. The galaxy is relatively smooth in appearance, with no obvious signs of major mergers or strong tidal disturbances. The overall light distribution suggests a de Vaucouleurs profile. The galaxy displays a moderate redshift.
