The galaxy presents a somewhat elliptical morphology, appearing mostly smooth in structure. It appears to have a mostly centralized bulge, with a slight elongation towards the vertical axis. The color profile suggests an older stellar population, leaning towards redder hues but there is a blueish tint towards the edges and in the middle, suggesting the presense of younger stars. There seems to be very little spiral arm structure visible, though this could be due to the viewing angle. No strong signs of tidal disturbances or ongoing mergers are immediately apparent from this image, though a slight distortion in its otherwise elliptical shape cannot be ruled out. The galaxy appears to be a relatively massive system, as its luminosity is bright. Star formation appears to be very low, as the galaxy presents little to no H-alpha emissions. Overall, the observed features suggest a relatively evolved galaxy, possibly a lenticular or early-type spiral galaxy seen at a significant distance.
