This galaxy appears to be a disk galaxy, but is more of a lenticular barred galaxy, likely viewed at an oblique angle. A faint central bulge is observed, with a flattened disk extending outwards, giving the galaxy a somewhat elongated appearance. The bulge exhibits a yellow-white hue, suggesting an older stellar population. Some areas of the disk also show a yellow-white color, which is also an indication of an older stellar population. The disk is a bit clumpy and irregular, suggesting disturbances to its structure. The image shows some areas of redder color in the disk, possibly indicating regions of dust obscuration and ongoing star formation. The overall shape of the galaxy is relatively smooth, but there are some subtle irregularities in the disk, which could point to interactions with smaller galaxies or ongoing tidal effects. There is no indication of the presence of a strong active galactic nucleus, or strong spiral arms. The dust and distortions may be associated with a minor merger event.
