The galaxy presents as a grand design spiral, inclined at an angle to our line of sight. The disk exhibits a flocculent morphology with multiple, tightly wound spiral arms emanating from a small, moderately bright central bulge. Distinct dust lanes are visible within the spiral arms, tracing their inner edges and contributing to the galaxy's overall structure. Star formation regions appear as bright blue knots scattered throughout the spiral arms, indicative of ongoing stellar genesis. The color gradient suggests a higher concentration of older stellar populations toward the galactic center, with bluer, younger stars dominating the outer spiral arms. Overall, the galaxy appears relatively isolated and shows no obvious signs of major interaction or recent merger events.
