The galaxy presents as a moderately bright, face-on spiral. Its central bulge appears prominent and smoothly luminous. The spiral arms are not well-defined, appearing somewhat flocculent and patchy, with regions of brighter luminosity and some redder, potentially dustier, areas. The galaxy has a moderately compact appearance, suggesting a system that is not highly extended. The overall color appears somewhat blue, indicative of ongoing star formation. No strong signs of tidal disturbances or major merger events are immediately obvious, though there may be some minor asymmetry in the outer regions of the spiral arms.
