The galaxy presents as a moderately bright, disk-shaped structure. It is oriented close to edge-on. A central bulge region is visible, appearing yellowish-orange in color, suggesting an older stellar population. There is a hint of a disk extending beyond the bulge, but it is not clearly defined and the light is relatively diffuse. The overall structure is relatively smooth with no distinct spiral arms evident, although minor disturbances are present. There is no evidence of a major ongoing merger, although a minor merger cannot be ruled out. The lack of distinct blue color suggests that the rate of recent star formation is relatively low in this galaxy, but some star formation is still ongoing.
