The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, viewed at a moderate inclination. It exhibits prominent spiral arms that are tightly wound around the central bulge. The bulge itself appears moderately sized relative to the disk and is yellowish in color, suggesting an older stellar population. There is evidence of a bar structure bisecting the central bulge. Star formation is present within the spiral arms, as indicated by the blueish color, and also by clumpy regions scattered throughout. There are no major signs of disturbance or merging activity. The galaxy has a substantial disk with no obvious edge-on obscuration by dust lanes.
