This galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy, exhibiting a largely featureless, smooth morphology. The light is concentrated towards the center, with a radial falloff in surface brightness. The overall shape appears close to circular, with a slight elongation that makes it appear in between a round and cigar shape. There is no obvious disk structure, spiral arms, or significant dust lanes visible in this image. The color profile suggests a population of older stars, leaning toward the redder end of the spectrum with a yellow hue. There are no signs of ongoing mergers or significant tidal disturbances, with the galaxy appearing largely undisturbed.
