The galaxy displays a prominent disk structure, viewed at a slight angle, but is not quite edge-on. Spiral arms are readily apparent, exhibiting a grand design with two dominant arms. These arms appear moderately tightly wound around a central bulge. The bulge presents a moderate size relative to the disk, and appears to be of intermediate luminosity. The galaxy lacks a strong central bar structure. No major signs of ongoing mergers or significant tidal disturbances are evident, although minor irregularities may be present. Star formation appears to be actively occurring within the spiral arms, implied by the enhanced blue coloration in those regions. Overall, the galaxy exhibits features consistent with a classical spiral galaxy morphology.
