The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, viewed at a considerable angle, but not completely edge-on. A bright central bulge is evident, with a flattened disk extending outwards. The disk exhibits a subtle bluish hue, potentially indicating regions of younger stellar populations and ongoing star formation. The spiral arms are not sharply defined, but can be traced as faint extensions from the central bulge, showing a somewhat flocculent structure. The light distribution within the galaxy is smooth, with the brightness decreasing gradually from the core to the outer regions. No significant dust lanes are clearly visible in this image.
