The galaxy presents a generally smooth appearance. It appears to be a disk-shaped galaxy, viewed at an angle that is in between edge-on and face-on. The central bulge is quite luminous.

There are hints of disturbed structures within the galaxy. These include a slight asymmetry in the outer regions and some subtle irregularities in the distribution of light. The galaxy shows a blueish tint, particularly towards the outer regions, suggesting ongoing star formation. There also is a minor merging event.

Overall, this galaxy displays characteristics of both a relatively settled, mature system and a galaxy undergoing some form of disturbance or interaction.
