The galaxy presents as an edge-on spiral, exhibiting a distinct flattened disk structure. The central bulge appears prominent and elongated, with a yellowish-orange hue indicative of an older stellar population. Dust lanes are faintly visible, obscuring some of the light from the bulge and disk, and giving the galaxy a slightly irregular appearance. There seems to be a small merging event or strong tidal feature on the right side of the galaxy, with irregular light distribution in the disk. The disk itself exhibits a bluer color compared to the central bulge, suggesting the presence of younger, hotter stars and ongoing star formation. The overall shape is moderately symmetrical, although the observed dust lanes and subtle irregularities introduce complexities.
