The galaxy presents as a disk galaxy, seen at a moderately oblique angle. There is a central bulge that appears bright and yellowish, suggesting an older stellar population. The disk itself shows evidence of spiral arm structure, although the arms are not sharply defined; they appear somewhat flocculent and exhibit a bluer color than the central bulge, indicative of ongoing star formation. The galaxy's overall shape is elongated, with a relatively high degree of flattening. There is no obvious evidence of a strong bar structure within the galaxy. There may be minor tidal disturbances and some amount of star formation. The overall impression is of a spiral galaxy with moderate disk inclination, showing a mix of older and younger stellar populations.
