The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elliptical object with a concentrated central bulge. The color gradient suggests an aging stellar population, with a redder hue dominating the core region, gradually shifting towards yellower tones in the outer regions. There's a slight elongation in the galaxy's shape, but it's generally quite round. No distinct spiral arms or active star-forming regions are discernible in this image, suggesting a quiescent state. The overall appearance is consistent with an early-type galaxy lacking significant dust lanes or prominent substructure.
