The galaxy presents as a spiral type, observed at an angle somewhat between face-on and edge-on. Faint spiral arms appear to originate near the slightly brighter central bulge, tracing outward in a loosely wound pattern. The galaxy does not possess a prominent bar feature. The central bulge appears relatively small in proportion to the overall disk size, indicating a smaller supermassive black hole is probably at its center. There is very little light or structural distortion indicating a major or minor merging event. Based on the visible arms, active star formation is happening, albeit at a low rate. Overall, the galaxy exhibits a moderate size and mass. The relatively blue colors of the arms and the slightly redder color of the core are indicative of differing stellar populations and ongoing star formation in the arms.
