The galaxy presents as a disk galaxy, seen at a significant, but not extreme, inclination relative to our line of sight. There is morphological evidence of spiral arms, which appear tightly wound. A central bulge is present, but it appears relatively small in comparison to the overall disk size. There may be a weak bar structure present, but the evidence is ambiguous. The disk component shows considerable structure and patchy variations in light distribution, suggesting ongoing star formation activity. There is no visible evidence of any major merging event, though it is possible that minor disturbances may be occurring.
