The galaxy presents as a spiral type, seen at a significant inclination. A distinct central bulge is visible, appearing yellowish-white in color, suggesting an older stellar population is concentrated there. Fainter spiral arms emanate from the central region, showing a bluer hue, which likely indicates the presence of younger, hotter stars and ongoing star formation. The arms appear somewhat patchy in surface brightness. The overall shape is elongated, with the apparent major axis approximately twice the length of the minor axis. The disk appears relatively smooth with no major signs of recent major merging activity, though the somewhat disturbed arms may indicate some gravitational interaction. The galaxy has a noticeable dust lane, and the color suggests recent star formation activity.
