This galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy viewed at a highly inclined angle. It exhibits a noticeable bulge at its center, which appears yellowish-red in color. Extending from the central bulge are faint spiral arms. The arms appear clumpy and slightly blue. The overall shape of the galaxy is elongated, which supports that we are looking at a spiral galaxy at an angle. There is no obvious evidence of a major merger, although some minor disturbances may be present in the disk.
