The galaxy presents as a disk galaxy, viewed nearly edge-on. There is a prominent central bulge which appears smooth and rounded with a yellowish color suggesting an older stellar population. The disk itself appears thin and elongated, extending significantly beyond the bulge. The disk shows some mottled structure and diffuse light, suggesting dust lanes and ongoing or recent star formation. No spiral arm structure is discernible. There appears to be some minor warping of the disk. The galaxy does not show any strong signs of tidal disturbances or major mergers.
