The galaxy presents as a well-defined spiral, inclined at a significant angle to our line of sight. The central bulge exhibits a yellowish hue, suggesting a population of older stars. Fainter spiral arms extend from the bulge, displaying a bluer color indicative of ongoing star formation. The arms appear somewhat patchy and loosely wound. The dust lanes are subtle but present within the arms, contributing to the mottled appearance. Overall, the galaxy displays a moderate degree of structural complexity, showing characteristics of both a smooth, centrally concentrated system and a more dynamic, actively star-forming spiral.
