The galaxy presents as a moderately inclined spiral, with loosely defined, somewhat patchy arms. A bar structure appears prominent within the central region, possibly spanning a significant portion of the galaxy's diameter. The central bulge appears relatively small. There are multiple bright regions of star formation that appear blue. The overall color of the galaxy suggests a substantial population of younger stars and ongoing star formation. There is some indication of a minor disturbance in the symmetry of the outer arms, perhaps due to gravitational interactions.
