The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elliptical or lenticular system. Its overall color is yellowish-white, indicative of a population dominated by older stars. There's a slight elongation to the galaxy's shape, suggesting a mild departure from perfect sphericity. Within the galaxy, there are subtle variations in color, with the central region appearing more yellow, which could be due to a higher concentration of older, redder stars. The outer regions exhibit a more muted, slightly bluish hue, potentially indicating the presence of some younger, bluer stars, but star formation appears minimal. Overall, it seems to be a non-interacting galaxy, likely a somewhat massive system with a modest amount of ongoing star formation. Evidence suggests that is may be in the process of merging, as a single disturbance can be seen in the image.
