This galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy, characterized by its smooth, featureless morphology and elongated shape. The galaxy exhibits a bright, concentrated central bulge that gradually fades into the outer regions. Color gradients are subtle, with a slightly bluer hue near the center, possibly indicating the presence of younger stars in that region. The overall color suggests an older stellar population, consistent with elliptical galaxies. No distinct spiral arms or prominent dust lanes are visible, reinforcing its classification as an elliptical galaxy. There is no clear evidence of any ongoing merger activity or significant tidal disturbances in the immediate vicinity of the galaxy.
