The object presents as a late-type spiral galaxy, observed nearly edge-on. A prominent central bulge exhibits a yellowish hue, indicating a population of older, cooler stars. The disk appears relatively smooth, and is oriented vertically in the frame. The light from the disk shows variations in blue color as one looks away from the bulge, suggestive of ongoing star formation within the spiral arms. There is no evidence of a strong bar structure. The morphology appears largely undisturbed, showing no indications of any significant recent merger events or tidal interactions with other galaxies.
