The galaxy appears as an elongated, edge-on disk galaxy. There is a central bulge component which seems to have a rounded shape, as opposed to boxy. The disk presents a somewhat smooth appearance, though some faint internal structure might be present with higher resolution imagery. No significant signs of ongoing mergers or major disturbances are apparent in the galaxy's morphology. Based on the color indices, the galaxy displays a gradient from bluer light in the outer disk to redder light towards the central bulge, suggesting a difference in stellar population, with younger, hotter stars dominating the outer regions and older, cooler stars concentrated in the bulge.
