The galaxy presents as a moderately bright, disk-shaped structure, seen nearly edge-on. A prominent central bulge is visible, appearing smooth and concentrated, and is surrounded by a flattened disk. The color of the bulge appears yellowish-white, suggestive of an older stellar population. The disk exhibits a bluer hue, hinting at ongoing star formation, particularly along the dust lane. The dust lane is sharply defined and obscures part of the galaxy's light, oriented along the major axis. There are no obvious signs of tidal disturbances or interactions with other galaxies, and the morphology appears largely undisturbed. Overall, it is a relatively symmetric and well-defined system.
