The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, exhibiting a central bulge region with a relatively high surface brightness. Surrounding this central region is a fainter, more diffuse disk. The disk shows some irregularity, possibly indicative of ongoing or past interactions. There is some asymmetry in the distribution of light within the disk; the galaxy appears slightly elongated in a roughly horizontal orientation. Possible merging activity or disturbances are hard to determine, but there is some irregularity. Color gradients are subtle; however, the central bulge appears slightly redder than the outer disk, which is consistent with stellar populations and dust distribution in spiral galaxies.
