The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, viewed at an angle significantly tilted from face-on.  The central bulge exhibits a bright, concentrated luminosity. The spiral arms are visible, showing moderate winding, and can be traced from the central region outwards. While the arms display some organization, they also appear somewhat flocculent in nature, with areas of enhanced star formation appearing as slightly bluer regions. There is no obvious strong bar structure present, and no obvious major merger event. The bulge size appears to be of moderate size relative to the disk. The presence of some dust lanes may obscure some of the underlying spiral structure.
