The galaxy presents as an edge-on spiral, exhibiting a significantly elongated disk structure. A prominent central bulge is visible, appearing somewhat diffuse and less concentrated. The disk shows evidence of dust lanes, particularly along the mid-plane, creating a subtle darkening effect and obscuring some of the starlight. The overall color profile suggests a mix of stellar populations, with a yellowish-white hue dominating the central bulge, potentially indicating older stars. The outer disk appears slightly bluer, hinting at the presence of younger, hotter stars and ongoing star formation. The disk appears relatively smooth, lacking significant clumpy structures.
