This galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy. It is characterized by a smooth, relatively featureless morphology, with a high degree of central concentration of light. The shape of the galaxy is close to being round, and the light distribution shows a clear, centrally concentrated bulge. There is no visible dust lane, spiral arm structure, or other significant features indicating ongoing major star formation. The overall color suggests a population of older stars, with a modest level of on going star formation. There are no indications of any current major merger events or significant tidal disturbances, only some minor disturbances, with no signs of merging.
