The galaxy presents a somewhat inclined disk, with a prominent central bulge region appearing a yellow-orange hue, suggestive of an older stellar population and a relative lack of ongoing star formation in this area. Faint spiral arm structures are visible, though not sharply defined. The arms appear to be relatively open, with a bluer color than the bulge suggesting the presence of younger, hotter stars. There is a suggestion of disturbance in the morphology, potentially due to a minor interaction or recent merger event. Overall, the galaxy exhibits characteristics intermediate between a pure elliptical and a fully formed spiral, appearing to be a later-type spiral galaxy with an apparent redshift of roughly 0.285.
