The galaxy presents as a relatively faint, elongated structure, indicative of a disk galaxy viewed nearly edge-on. There is a distinct central bulge, slightly brighter than the surrounding disk. The disk itself shows a generally smooth texture, without prominent spiral arm features that are visible. The color appears somewhat blue-ish, with hints of redder concentrations in the central bulge. A fainter structure is visible near the galaxy. The low prominence of star formation suggests the galaxy is likely relatively quiescent in its star-forming activity.
