The galaxy is a late-type spiral galaxy, viewed edge-on. A prominent dust lane obscures the central region of the disk, bisecting the galaxy's light. There is a slight warping of the disk, indicating possible past interaction or ongoing internal dynamics. The bulge appears round, and the spiral arms are tightly wound and faint. There is no evidence of active galactic nuclei activity or a recent major merger event. The galaxy exhibits colors that suggest active star formation. It has an estimated diameter of approximately 8.4 kiloparsecs.
