This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, lenticular or early-type spiral galaxy at a moderate redshift. The central bulge is prominent and exhibits a yellowish hue, indicating a population of older, redder stars. The overall form of the galaxy is somewhat elliptical, suggesting a moderate degree of flattening. There is a subtle, disk-like structure surrounding the bulge with faint spiral arm segments or dust lanes visible. These are somewhat blue, indicating more active star formation regions. No major disturbances or signs of a recent major merger are apparent in this image, with very little to no tidal features.
