The observed galaxy presents as an elongated, disk-shaped structure, viewed nearly edge-on. A central bulge region exhibits a yellowish hue, suggesting a population of older stars. The main disk appears relatively smooth, with a gradient of color from yellowish-white near the bulge to a faint blue along the outer edges. The smooth nature of the disk and tightly wound spiral arms suggest an evolved system, although there is possible evidence of minor disturbances.
