The galaxy presents as a grand design spiral, exhibiting two clearly defined spiral arms. These arms are tightly wound around a central bulge. The bulge appears relatively small, but has considerable depth and is very dense. The arms are dotted with regions of star formation. There is no evidence of a strong bar structure within the galaxy. The morphology does not appear to indicate any major mergers, but there are indications of minor disturbances in the arms. The overall shape of the galaxy is nearly circular, with the galactic disc exhibiting a high degree of symmetry.
