This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical-type galaxy. Its light is centrally concentrated, with a gradual decrease in luminosity towards the outer edges, and a slight blue hue. There is no obvious dust lane, spiral arm structure or bar visible in the image. The galaxy has a generally round appearance, with no apparent distortions or tidal tails indicative of recent major merger activity. There might be some evidence of minor interaction, perhaps in the form of a faint halo. Given the color profile, it appears to be a relatively quiescent galaxy, undergoing very little star formation.
