The galaxy presents as a moderately bright, elliptical or lenticular system, exhibiting a smooth, largely featureless morphology. There's a distinct central bulge, which appears bright white, likely indicating a high concentration of older stars. The outer regions of the galaxy fade gradually into the background sky, appearing blue indicating the likely presence of younger stars. No distinct spiral arms or prominent dust lanes are discernible in this image. There is no apparent significant distortion or tidal features which indicates the possibility of a recent major merger event. The lack of well-defined structure and the overall smooth appearance suggests that star formation may be relatively quiescent.
