The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, somewhat elliptical structure. A bulge is evident, appearing yellowish-white and concentrated towards the center. There is evidence of a disk. This disk appears mottled. The galaxy has a slight tilt relative to our line of sight, obscuring its full morphology. There are signs of mild disturbances in the disk, and a faint bluish glow in the surrounding arms. This might indicate some ongoing star formation. The system appears moderately massive, with a fairly high star formation rate.
