The galaxy appears as a flattened, disk-like structure, viewed at a high inclination. A bright central bulge is apparent, surrounded by a more diffuse disk. The disk shows some indication of spiral arm structure, but is not sharply defined. The color distribution suggests an older stellar population in the bulge, with a bluer component in the disk. There is potential morphological distortion with the possibility of tidal tails extending from the central body. There is also a possibility that this is the result of artifacting.
