The galaxy presents as a spiral, with a notable disc-like structure viewed at an angle oblique to edge-on. The spiral arms are distinct, exhibiting a grand design pattern with primarily two arms that are wound relatively tightly. These arms are populated by regions of active star formation, visible as patches of bluer luminosity. The central bulge is prominent and possesses a yellowish hue, indicating an older stellar population. There appears to be a weak bar feature bisecting the bulge. There is no evidence of a major merger event, although some minor disturbances might be present. Overall, the galaxy exhibits a moderate level of ongoing star formation. The galaxy shows a distribution of stellar mass typical of a spiral galaxy, suggesting a mature, well-developed system.
