The galaxy presents a primarily edge-on disk orientation. The central bulge region appears relatively smooth and concentrated, exhibiting a white to slightly yellowish hue indicative of an older stellar population. Moving outwards from the bulge towards the disk, a bluer color gradient is observed, suggesting the presence of younger, hotter stars associated with ongoing or recent star formation.

The disk component exhibits a noticeable dust lane obscuring a portion of the light emitted. Some disk irregularities are visible and may indicate minor gravitational disturbances. The overall morphology is suggestive of a spiral galaxy with a relatively tightly wound arm structure, however, it lacks the prominent, well-defined spiral arms typically seen in face-on spirals, which supports the edge-on classification. There is a lack of observable strong star formation as would be evidenced by bright HII regions.
