This galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy, viewed at a slight angle. The bulge appears small, with a diffuse, moderate glow. There is a fairly well-defined disk with a few tightly wound spiral arms visible; their tracing becomes less distinct further away from the bulge. The galaxy displays a color gradient; a redder hue is seen closer to the galactic center that gradually transitions into a bluer appearance in the outer disk. The disk appears relatively undisturbed, with no obvious signs of a major ongoing merger.
