The galaxy presents as a spiral galaxy, possibly of type Sb or Sc, viewed at a slight angle. The central bulge is prominent and appears relatively smooth and luminous. Spiral arms are discernible, though not sharply defined, exhibiting some flocculence. There's evidence of ongoing star formation activity within the disk, indicated by regions of bluer light, most likely the presence of younger, hotter stars. The overall color index suggests a population of both older and younger stars, distributed throughout the galaxy. There appears to be no major merger events occurring currently, however, some minor disturbances may be present within the spiral arms. Dust lanes are subtly present, particularly on the near side of the galactic disk, obscuring some of the background light from the bulge. Overall, the galaxy exhibits characteristics consistent with a spiral galaxy in a relatively quiescent state, with moderate star formation and a well-defined structure.
