The galaxy presents as a relatively bright, barred spiral system viewed at a moderately inclined angle. The central bulge appears prominent and elongated, suggesting the presence of a bar structure. There is evidence of ongoing star formation, indicated by the blue-ish hues within the spiral arms. The arms appear somewhat patchy and not very well defined, particularly on one side of the galaxy, suggestive of some disturbance. The disk of the galaxy seems to extend approximately 3 kpc from the center, and displays a degree of asymmetry. Based on its shape, it does not appear to be undergoing a major merging event, but some minor gravitational interaction cannot be ruled out given the apparent disturbance to one of its arms.
