The galaxy appears as a centrally concentrated object with a generally smooth morphology. The core exhibits a yellowish-white color, which is typical of older stellar populations. Moving outward from the core, the color shifts toward a slightly bluer hue, indicating the presence of some younger stars, though the color is still overall relatively old. There's little in the way of discernible spiral arm structure or distinct dust lanes and it appears round. The outer edges of the galaxy fade gradually into the background sky, suggesting a relatively smooth density profile. There are some minor signs of tidal disturbances or interactions, but it appears to be mostly quiescent. Overall, based on the appearance and color distribution, this galaxy is likely an elliptical galaxy. The galaxy seems to be experiencing a moderate amount of star formation.
