This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical galaxy with a noticeable central bulge. It exhibits a yellowish-orange hue, suggesting an older stellar population and a lack of significant ongoing star formation. The galaxy has an elongated shape, appearing somewhat cigar-shaped but mostly in-between round and elongated, indicating a degree of flattening. There's no obvious evidence of a spiral structure or prominent dust lanes. No major merger is apparent, although there may be very subtle indications of minor disturbances, but nothing significant. The galaxy's overall morphology suggests it is a mature system that has largely exhausted its gas reserves.
