The galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy, exhibiting a generally smooth and round morphology. The color profile suggests an older stellar population, dominated by redder hues, particularly in the central region. There is a noticeable lack of prominent spiral arm structures or significant dust lanes, supporting the smooth, elliptical classification. The outer regions of the galaxy appear to gradually fade into the background sky, with no sharp cutoff in luminosity. There are hints of slight disturbances or asymmetries in the galaxy's shape, potentially indicating a past minor merger or interaction. The galaxy's core is bright and concentrated, suggesting a high stellar density and possibly the presence of a supermassive black hole. Overall, the galaxy's appearance is consistent with that of a mature elliptical galaxy with limited ongoing star formation.
