This galaxy appears to be a relatively compact object, approximately 3 arcseconds in apparent diameter. It exhibits a bright, concentrated central region. The color gradient suggests a possible change in stellar populations. The core appears to be primarily blue-white, possibly indicating the presence of younger, hotter stars, or active galactic nuclei (AGN). Moving outwards from the center, the color shifts toward a yellow-green hue, which may be attributed to the increasing presence of older stellar populations, particularly in the outer regions.

There are faint extensions or tidal features emanating from the galaxy. These features appear asymmetrical, suggesting past or ongoing gravitational interactions. These asymmetries could be evidence of a recent minor merger or tidal disruption.

The overall morphology appears primarily smooth, though the asymmetrical extensions imply some level of disturbance. It is not a well-defined spiral or barred spiral galaxy, but possesses characteristics that could align with an elliptical galaxy, or an early-type spiral. Additional observations in different wavelengths would be useful to further constrain the galaxy’s stellar populations, dust content, and possible AGN activity.
