The galaxy presents as a disk galaxy, viewed at a moderately high inclination. A central bulge is present, appearing yellowish-white in color. The disk component exhibits a mottled appearance, with hints of spiral arm structure partially obscured by the viewing angle. There appears to be more star formation in this galaxy than there is dust. A region of blueish light suggests some active star formation occurring in the plane of the galaxy. The disk appears relatively thin. There's no evident major disturbance or ongoing merging activity.
