The galaxy presents as a flattened, disk-like structure oriented roughly edge-on to our line of sight. It exhibits a central, brighter region which may indicate a bulge component. There is a distinct color gradient within the galaxy, transitioning from a bluer hue in the outer regions to a slightly redder central area. This may suggest active star formation in the outer disk. Irregularities are noted along the disk, particularly towards one edge. These features could potentially be attributed to minor tidal disturbances from a past interaction with a smaller galaxy. A low surface brightness component extends beyond the bright central disk, suggesting a diffuse halo.
