The galaxy presents as a spiral type, with a moderately sized bulge relative to the disk. The spiral arms are well-defined and extend outwards from the central bulge. The winding of these arms appears to be fairly tight, but not extremely so. There is some evidence of asymmetry within the arms, with a few parts appearing more tightly wound than others. The color of the bulge is yellowish-orange, suggesting an older stellar population, while the spiral arms exhibit bluer hues, which may be indicative of ongoing star formation. A weak bar may be present. No obvious signs of major mergers are apparent, though the overall shape of the galaxy is not perfectly uniform.
