The galaxy presents as a relatively face-on spiral, exhibiting a prominent central bulge that appears smooth and highly concentrated. The bulge shows a yellow-white color indicative of an older stellar population. The spiral arms are somewhat flocculent and not sharply defined, exhibiting a bluer hue suggesting the presence of younger, hotter stars and ongoing star formation. There are visible dust lanes in the arms. The galaxy's outer regions appear less structured and more diffuse. The overall morphology suggests a galaxy that is transitioning away from active star formation.
