The galaxy presents as a relatively face-on spiral, characterized by a flattened disk structure. Distinct spiral arms are visible, exhibiting a flocculent morphology. The central bulge appears prominent, with a smooth, concentrated light profile. There is evidence of ongoing star formation, as indicated by the presence of HII regions or young stellar clusters within the spiral arms, recognizable as knots of bluer emission. Some asymmetry or distortion in the outer disk regions suggests possible gravitational interactions or past merger events. Dust lanes are subtly visible, tracing the inner edges of the spiral arms and contributing to the galaxy's overall reddish color.
