The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, viewed at a shallow angle, somewhere between face-on and edge-on. There is evidence of spiral arm structure, but it is not sharply defined. The arms appear somewhat flocculent, lacking grand design characteristics. The galaxy exhibits a moderate bulge. The image shows the presence of a bar structure. There's a suggestion of some ongoing star formation activity, visible as faint blue regions within the spiral arms, however, overall the colors suggest a relatively quiescent galaxy. The galaxy is not showing obvious signs of major disturbances due to mergers, but there is a possibility of minor disturbances.
