This galaxy exhibits a generally smooth morphology, suggesting an elliptical or lenticular classification. A slight bluish halo surrounds the central region, which is comparatively brighter and more concentrated. This halo might indicate some recent star formation activity, although it appears subdued. The galaxy's overall rounded appearance, though somewhat diffuse, hints at a relatively relaxed dynamical state, although the galaxy does look to possibly be merging with a dimmer one, visible on the left. The absence of clearly defined spiral arms or prominent dust lanes reinforces the impression of a well-mixed stellar population. The luminosity profile suggests a substantial population of older stars, but the blue color does suggest that star forming properties are evident.
