The galaxy presents as a disk galaxy, seen edge-on. There is evidence of a central bulge that appears rather bright. Dust lanes are visible, bisecting the galaxy along its major axis. The disk shows a slight asymmetry, possibly indicating a minor gravitational interaction or disturbance. There appears to be some tidal debris or faint plumes extending from the galactic plane, supporting the possibility of an interaction. Star formation appears to be occurring within the disk, with the suggestion of some bluer regions, though this is somewhat masked by what appears to be a reddening effect due to dust. The galaxy's overall light profile suggests it is moderately sized, with a diffuse halo surrounding the central structure.
