This galaxy presents as a highly elongated, disk-shaped system, likely a spiral galaxy viewed edge-on. A prominent central bulge is visible, appearing relatively smooth and diffuse. The bulge exhibits a yellowish-white hue, suggesting a population of older stars. The disk component appears flattened with some internal structure that may indicate dust lanes or spiral arm segments, though the edge-on view makes definitive determination challenging. The overall color gradient transitions from a warmer yellowish-white in the bulge to cooler, fainter tones along the edges of the disk, possibly indicating regions of lower stellar density or differing stellar populations. There is no obvious indication of a recent major merger.
