The galaxy presents as a spiral type, exhibiting distinct spiral arms. The arms appear flocculent, demonstrating a patchy structure along their lengths. The arms seem to have a grand design. The galaxy has a moderate bulge component. The arms display regions of bluer light, hinting at active star formation. Dust lanes are subtly visible along the inner edges of some of the arms. There may be a weak bar-like structure bisecting the central bulge, though it is not prominently defined. The overall color of the galaxy is yellowish, suggesting a population of older stars, especially towards the bulge. There appears to be a potential merger in progress. There appears to be a second object next to the right portion of the galaxy, which could be the cause of a merging event. There are no signs of a prominent disk.
