The galaxy presents as a relatively compact object with a smooth, centrally concentrated light distribution. There is a discernible radial color gradient, shifting from a more yellow hue in the central region to a bluer color in the outer regions. There are some suggestions of subtle features such as faint arms or a ring like structure, but the dominant impression is one of a relatively undisturbed system without evidence of major ongoing mergers or tidal interactions. The overall appearance is suggestive of a spiral galaxy or a transition disk galaxy, seen face-on with ongoing star formation.
