The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elliptical morphology with a concentrated central bulge that emits strongly in yellow wavelengths. The outer regions of the galaxy fade gradually into the background, suggesting a diffuse stellar halo. There is a slight asymmetry to the galaxy's shape, leaning away from being perfectly round but also far from being cigar-shaped. The observed color suggests an older stellar population, and active star formation appears to be minimal. No evidence of spiral arms, significant dust lanes, or ongoing major mergers are apparent in this image. There may be a slight disturbance indicating a minor tidal interaction, but the overall structure appears generally undisturbed.
