This galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy, exhibiting a generally smooth and concentrated structure. The galaxy displays a radial color gradient, with the central region appearing more reddish, suggesting an older stellar population. Progressing outward, the galaxy fades into a bluish halo. This may indicate some ongoing star formation in the outer regions, but at a rate slower than that of spiral galaxies. The galaxy lacks any obvious spiral arm structure or significant dust lanes. Its shape appears close to round. There are no signs of any major disturbances or tidal tails that might indicate a recent major merger event. The galaxy is reasonably massive.
