The galaxy presents as an elongated structure, viewed nearly edge-on from our vantage point. A prominent dust lane bisects the galaxy along its major axis, obscuring the central regions and contributing to the galaxy's reddish appearance. The bulge component appears smoothly distributed, showing a round morphology. The disk is quite thin and stretches several kiloparsecs in length. No significant tidal features or signs of recent major merger activity are apparent, although some minor asymmetry in the disk may indicate past or ongoing interactions. Star formation appears to be relatively low, which correlates with a low specific star formation rate. The color suggests the galaxy is composed primarily of an older stellar population, with minimal recent star formation activity.
