The galaxy presents as a spiral galaxy with a moderate bulge. The spiral arms are not tightly wound, displaying a more open structure. There appears to be some disruption in the arm structure, possibly indicative of tidal interactions or recent mergers. A bar may be present, though its strength is difficult to ascertain. The bulge exhibits a yellowish hue, suggesting a population of older stars, while the arms show a bluer tint, possibly representing more active regions of star formation. Some areas of intense star formation appear as bright knots within the spiral arms. There is an overall clumpy, disturbed appearance that further suggest a merger is occurring.
