The galaxy presents as an edge-on or nearly edge-on disk galaxy. A prominent dust lane appears to bisect the galaxy along its major axis, obscuring light from the galactic center and contributing to its elongated appearance. The central bulge exhibits a yellowish hue, suggesting a population of older stars. Progressing outwards from the center towards the visible edges of the disk, a bluer color becomes more apparent, hinting at regions of younger star formation. While largely appearing relatively undisturbed, there is a slight asymmetry visible in the outer regions of the disk, suggesting minor gravitational interactions or perturbations. Overall, the galaxy shows a smooth light distribution without significant irregular features, though the dust lane and subtle asymmetry introduce some complexity.
