The galaxy presents as an edge-on spiral, exhibiting a prominent dust lane bisecting its major axis. The central bulge appears relatively smooth and concentrated, with a yellowish hue indicating an older stellar population. The disk component shows a bluer tint, possibly indicative of ongoing star formation, although this is less evident due to the edge-on orientation and distance. There are no clear signs of any tidal distortions or ongoing major mergers. The disk is very thin compared to the size of the bulge. The disk light appears smooth, suggesting a relatively quiescent star formation environment.
