This galaxy appears to be an elliptical galaxy, exhibiting a smooth, featureless morphology. The galaxy's shape is elongated, showing a cigar-like appearance rather than a perfectly round one. The color gradient suggests a higher concentration of older stellar populations toward the center of the galaxy, appearing yellowish-orange. There is no visible evidence of spiral arms or dust lanes within the galaxy. Given the smooth morphology, it is likely the galaxy has undergone significant evolution. There does not seem to be ongoing, significant star formation in this galaxy.
