This galaxy exhibits a prominent, bright central bulge that appears somewhat diffuse, indicating a significant population of older stars. The disk component displays a well-defined spiral structure, with tightly wound arms. These arms are easily traced, although there are some regions of lower clarity on the periphery. There is a strong color gradient evident across the disk, with bluer hues concentrated within the spiral arms and yellower tints dominating the bulge and inter-arm regions, potentially revealing differences in stellar populations and star formation activity. Indications of a weak bar-like structure crossing the central bulge, causing a slight deviation of the spiral arms. No major signs of ongoing merging activity or strong tidal distortions are observed. However, some minor irregularities in the outer disk may indicate past interactions.
