The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, viewed nearly edge-on. A central bulge is visible as a bright, yellowish concentration of light. The disk extends outwards from this bulge and appears relatively thin. There is evidence of dust lanes, appearing as dark, somewhat irregular bands along the plane of the disk. The disk exhibits a smooth, featureless appearance, with no distinct spiral arm structures immediately discernible. The galaxy does not appear to be undergoing a major merger. However, some minor disturbances may be present, such as the slight asymmetry in the disk.
