The galaxy exhibits a spiral structure, with tightly wound arms. The arms are not very well defined and appear somewhat flocculent. The central bulge is prominent and appears moderately sized, with a yellowish hue indicating an older stellar population. The disk is viewed at a slightly inclined angle, not quite edge-on, allowing some spiral structure to be discerned. There appears to be a possible weak bar feature spanning across the center of the bulge. The overall color suggests the presence of both younger, bluer stars within the spiral arms and older, redder stars within the bulge. There are no obvious signs of major mergers or significant tidal disturbances, although a minor irregularity or slight asymmetry in the spiral arms cannot be ruled out.
