The galaxy presents as a somewhat elongated, lenticular-shaped structure. The core region exhibits a concentrated, bright luminosity, appearing smooth and relatively featureless. There's a noticeable color gradient moving from the center outwards, with the core tending toward yellow/white hues, transitioning to a more blue/green tint in the surrounding regions. The outer edges of the galaxy gradually fade, suggesting a diffuse stellar population. The overall morphology implies an evolved system with a dominant spheroidal component and potential for ongoing, albeit subdued, star formation in the outer regions. There is no clear evidence of spiral arms or significant dust lanes in the image. The smooth texture hints at a galaxy that has undergone significant merging activity in its past, leading to the homogenization of its stellar populations. The lack of strong tidal features suggests the merger event was likely some time ago.
