The galaxy presents as a spiral, viewed at a slight angle relative to face-on. Two dominant spiral arms appear to emanate from a central, bright bulge. The arms are well-defined, though not tightly wound; they exhibit a medium pitch angle. The color of the arms is bluer than the bulge, suggesting ongoing star formation. The central bulge is a yellowish-white color, indicating an older stellar population. Evidence of a bar structure is weak; the central region seems relatively symmetrical. The galaxy is relatively isolated; there are no signs of major tidal disturbances or ongoing mergers. There are no obvious dust lanes visible in this image. The overall structure is well-formed, suggesting a relatively undisturbed evolutionary history.
