The galaxy presents an edge-on disk morphology. A prominent dust lane bisects the galaxy, obscuring the central regions. The galactic bulge appears elongated and has a rounded shape, and is brighter than the rest of the disk. The galaxy disk appears relatively smooth, with a lack of distinct spiral arm structure visible in the image. There is no evidence of major mergers or tidal disturbances in the visible structure. There is a slight bluing towards the edges of the galaxy.
