The galaxy presents as a grand design spiral, exhibiting prominent and tightly wound spiral arms. The arms appear flocculent, displaying a patchy structure indicative of ongoing star formation. The central bulge is moderately sized, and presents an elongated structure, suggesting the presence of a bar. The disk of the galaxy is viewed at a shallow inclination. The luminosity profile suggests a high mass and robust star formation. There is no visual evidence of a recent major merger, but the slight asymmetry in the spiral arms might suggest a minor interaction or disturbance.
