This galaxy presents a generally smooth and rounded appearance. A bright, concentrated core is visible, indicating a high stellar density in the central region. The galaxy exhibits a color gradient, shifting from a yellowish-white hue in the core to a slightly bluer periphery. This could be indicative of a difference in stellar populations, with older, redder stars concentrated centrally and younger, bluer stars in the outer regions, although dust attenuation could also contribute to the observed color differences. There's a subtle extension in its shape, leaning towards an elliptical morphology, rather than a perfect spherical form. No distinct spiral arms or other detailed structures are readily discernible. However, closer inspection reveals slight irregularities within the outer regions, which may hint at minor gravitational disturbances or interactions, although a significant merger event is not immediately obvious. Overall, it appears to be a relatively evolved system with a well-defined central bulge, exhibiting ongoing, albeit relatively moderate, star formation.
