The galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy, likely a spheroid or nearly round system. The light is fairly concentrated towards the center, with a smooth, gradual fall-off in intensity outward. There is a slight elongation, but it is overwhelmingly round in appearance. The color profile suggests that this galaxy consists primarily of older stars, emitting light concentrated in the redder portion of the spectrum, with a slight reduction of blue light, which would be expected in the light of younger stars. The galaxy does not show evidence of prominent spiral arms or a well-defined disk, and there is no sign of recent major merger activity. This suggests it is a relaxed system where star formation has largely ceased, but there is some evidence of ongoing star formation at a very low level.
