The galaxy presents as a relatively compact object, appearing smooth and largely featureless in this image. Its overall shape is elliptical, tending toward a round morphology rather than an elongated, cigar-like form. The galaxy's color profile suggests a higher concentration of older stellar populations, with a yellowish hue dominating its central region. There's a slight color gradient visible, with the outskirts appearing marginally bluer, potentially indicating the presence of some younger stars or ongoing, though limited, star formation activity in those regions. No significant tidal features, strong distortions, or signs of ongoing mergers are readily apparent. Any disturbances, if present, are likely minor. The lack of discernible spiral arms or a defined disk structure is consistent with its classification as an elliptical galaxy.
