The galaxy presents as a somewhat elliptical, moderately luminous object. The central bulge is a prominent, concentrated region of yellowish-white light. The galaxy exhibits a disk structure, however, there are only a few defined spiral arms. The structure gives way to faint extensions with little structure. One arm is reddish in hue, indicating some ongoing star formation. The other arm has a slight blueish hue, also indicating ongoing star formation. The overall color gradients suggest a population of older stars dominating the core, with hints of younger stellar populations in the less structured arms.
