This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, centrally concentrated elliptical galaxy. Its color is a yellowish-white hue, suggesting an older stellar population with fewer hot, young, blue stars. The galaxy exhibits an elongated, football-like shape, not perfectly spherical. There is no visible disk structure or spiral arms. The light appears to fade smoothly from the bright core outward, with no clear evidence of significant dust lanes or active star-forming regions within the galaxy. There is no visible evidence of any significant mergers or tidal disturbances.
