The galaxy presents as a relatively small, edge-on spiral or lenticular system. A distinct dust lane bisects the galaxy, obscuring the light from the central bulge. The bulge appears to be prominent with a brighter, yellowish hue. Fainter, bluer light extends outward from the dust lane in a more diffuse manner, suggesting the presence of a disk component. The galaxy exhibits a slight elongation. The light from the disk is not uniformly distributed, implying a degree of patchiness within the structure. The general morphology suggests the galaxy is not undergoing any major merging activity or significant disturbances.
