The galaxy presents as a spiral type, viewed at an oblique angle. A prominent central bulge is apparent, exhibiting a yellowish hue, suggestive of an older stellar population. Faint spiral arms emanate from the central bulge. Evidence suggests the galaxy is relatively large, and of moderate mass. Two spiral arms are clearly observed with medium winding. The colors indicate moderate recent star formation activity. The spiral structure appears somewhat disturbed, possibly indicative of a minor interaction or past merger event. There is a suggestion of a bar-like feature crossing the bulge. The galaxy does not appear to be an edge-on disk galaxy.
