This galaxy presents a generally smooth morphology with a concentrated central bulge. The galaxy appears elliptical in shape, with a high degree of roundness. There is a subtle color gradient visible, transitioning from a more yellow-white core to redder tones in the outer regions. This color difference potentially indicates differing stellar populations, with older, redder stars dominating the outskirts and younger, hotter stars concentrated towards the center. The lack of well-defined spiral arms or strong dust lanes further supports the classification as an elliptical or lenticular galaxy. There are no prominent tidal features or indications of major mergers, though some minor disturbances may be present in the outer halo, potentially indicating past interactions. Based on its color and smooth appearance, the galaxy is likely a relatively massive system with a high stellar mass and a low to moderate rate of star formation.
