The galaxy presents as a grand design spiral galaxy with a moderately sized bulge. The bulge appears yellow, with a bright central concentration of light. Two dominant spiral arms emanate from the central bulge in a well-defined manner. The spiral arms appear tightly wound closest to the center and become more loosely wound as they extend outwards. The arms exhibit a mottled texture suggestive of star forming regions. There may be a faint bar structure present in the inner region. There is no apparent major disturbance or tidal tail associated with the galaxy, suggesting that it may not be undergoing a major merger event. There is no visual evidence of an edge-on disk. The overall appearance suggests a spiral morphology.
