The galaxy presents a clear spiral structure, with distinct arms emanating from a bright central bulge. The bulge itself appears relatively prominent, suggesting an older stellar population concentrated at the galaxy's core. The spiral arms are moderately wound, not tightly compressed nor loosely sprawling, with varying degrees of patchiness. The arms also display varying degrees of star formation. Blue regions along the arms indicate active star formation, with concentrations of young, hot stars. Dust lanes are subtly apparent, interspersed within the spiral arms, obscuring some of the light. There is evidence of a possible interaction or disturbance, with an irregular shape of its spiral arms. Overall, the galaxy appears to be undergoing a moderate amount of star formation.
