The galaxy appears as a relatively smooth, centrally concentrated object. It exhibits a somewhat elliptical morphology, trending towards roundness but not perfectly circular. The light distribution suggests a dominant bulge component. There is little indication of significant spiral arm structure or prominent dust lanes. The color gradient shows a bluer core region surrounded by a redder outer halo. There are no indications of any major ongoing merging activity. The galaxy does not appear to be a late-stage merger remnant or significantly tidally disturbed. The texture of the galaxy appears to be quite even, with no bright knots of star formation discernible in this image.
