The galaxy appears to be a disk galaxy, viewed at a slight angle. It is dominated by a central bulge of older stars, which is brighter and yellowish in color. The disk shows evidence of spiral arms, though they are not well-defined; these are traced by regions of bluer light, suggesting the presence of younger, hotter stars and star-forming regions. A subtle dust lane may be present, bisecting the bulge, although the image resolution makes it difficult to discern clearly. The galaxy does not show evidence of recent major mergers or strong tidal features. Overall, the galaxy presents a relatively smooth appearance, indicative of a more evolved system. The galaxy's shape has a slight elliptical appearance; its major axis appears to be roughly twice the length of its minor axis. There are indications of ongoing, low-level star formation within the disk, which is more prominent on one side of the galactic center.
