The galaxy presents as a barred spiral, with a relatively prominent central bulge. The bulge exhibits a yellowish hue, indicative of an older stellar population. Two tightly wound spiral arms appear dominant, exhibiting flocculent structure, and are traced outwards from the ends of a subtle bar feature. The arms show a bluer color, indicating the presence of younger, hotter stars. The galaxy appears to be viewed at an angle, causing it to appear elongated, and there is a dusty region in the inner disk. The outer disk has a somewhat diffuse appearance, possibly indicating ongoing star formation. The overall morphology suggests a galaxy in a relatively mature stage of evolution, with ongoing but not intense star formation in the spiral arms.
