The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy viewed nearly edge-on. A prominent dust lane is visible, bisecting the galaxy's light and indicating the plane of the galactic disk. The central bulge appears significant, showing a concentrated, rounded shape, and emits a yellowish light, which may be indicative of an older stellar population. The outer disk exhibits a bluer color, suggesting the presence of younger stars and ongoing star formation. Faint spiral arm structures are possibly discernible extending from the central bulge, but this is difficult to verify due to the viewing angle and image resolution. There is a suggestion of possible minor tidal distortions in the outer regions of the disk. The overall estimated size is considerable, and would indicate this is a relatively massive object.
