De Vaucouleurs Atlas Description:
This unusual object shows a weak, significantly foreshortened bar and a fairly well-defined inner pseudoring . However, the disk is riddled with chaotic dust lanes. The structure in the center is complex in showing a few bright knots. The galaxy has a small bulge for its type. 2MASS images (Jarrett et al. 2003) confirm the presence of the end-on bar.
