The galaxy appears to be a relatively face-on spiral galaxy with a prominent central bulge. The bulge is bright and appears somewhat smooth in texture. The spiral arms are not tightly wound but are visible as broad, diffuse features extending from the bulge. There appears to be some amount of flocculence within the spiral arms, with areas of apparent star formation. The galaxy appears to be blue-ish in color. There is no significant distortion or tidal features visible, although there are some minor disturbances in the spiral arms. The galaxy does not show strong evidence of an ongoing merger.
