The galaxy presents as a spiral galaxy, viewed nearly edge-on. A dust lane is visible, bisecting the galaxy's disk. The central bulge appears prominent and yellowish-white, suggesting a population of older stars. Fainter, bluer light is observed along the edges of the disk, potentially indicating regions of more recent star formation. There may be slight disturbances in the disk shape, but there is no prominent major merger occurring. The galaxy does not appear to be a smooth or elliptical galaxy. There is a red object near the right of the image of an unknown cause.
