The galaxy exhibits a clear spiral structure. The arms appear somewhat tightly wound around a bright, moderately sized central bulge. A subtle asymmetry is present in the spiral arm structure. There is evidence of ongoing star formation within the spiral arms, as indicated by the patches of bluer light distributed throughout. The overall color suggests a spiral galaxy with active regions of star formation, a relatively thin disk, and a moderate amount of internal dust extinction. No prominent bar structure is immediately apparent. The galaxy has a slightly elliptical shape.
