This galaxy presents as a spiral, viewed at a moderate inclination. The central bulge appears significant, with a bright, concentrated luminosity indicative of a substantial population of older stars. The spiral arms are well-defined and relatively tightly wound, suggesting a mature spiral structure. Two dominant spiral arms are visible. A bar structure is apparent, which is not very pronounced. The disk component is prominent, with a bluer color compared to the bulge, indicative of active star formation. No significant dust lanes are readily discernible. The overall morphology suggests a classification along the lines of a barred spiral galaxy, perhaps of type SBb. No major disturbances or signs of an ongoing merger event are readily apparent.
