This galaxy appears to be a disk galaxy, viewed at a moderately tilted angle. There is a bright, prominent central bulge. The disk exhibits a relatively smooth texture with faint, diffuse spiral arm structures visible. The galaxy has a generally blue color, especially in the disk, with a slight reddening towards the bulge. There is no obvious presence of strong dust lanes or knots of intense star formation. The galaxy does not display any signs of a major merger, though there is some minor asymmetry in the outer disk, perhaps indicating a minor disturbance or interaction.
