The galaxy appears as an elongated structure, oriented nearly edge-on relative to our line of sight. A prominent dust lane bisects the galaxy along its major axis, obscuring the central regions and suggesting the presence of a galactic disk. The overall color gradient transitions from bluish hues at the apparent edges of the disk to a more yellow-orange tone towards the galaxy's core, possibly indicating a difference in stellar populations, dust composition, or star formation activity between these regions. There is a slight warping or flaring visible in the disk, and also some slight disturbance in the morphology, possibly indicating a recent or ongoing minor merger event, although no clearly defined tidal tails or bridges are apparent. The central bulge is relatively small.
