The galaxy exhibits a predominantly smooth morphology, suggesting it is likely an elliptical galaxy or a lenticular galaxy viewed at an angle. The overall shape is elongated, appearing as an ellipse with the major axis significantly longer than the minor axis. The core of the galaxy displays a concentrated, bright yellowish-white hue, indicating a high density of older stellar populations. Proceeding outwards from the core, the galaxy transitions into a reddish halo, potentially indicating an older stellar population and/or dust absorption. Subtle features that may be indicative of weak spiral arms are present, but these are indistinct and represent a minor fraction of the galaxy's light distribution. The outskirts of the galaxy appear fuzzy and less defined, hinting at a gradual decrease in stellar density. There are no prominent signs of active star formation regions visible in the image, which aligns with the galaxy's smooth appearance and dominance of older stars. No signs of any major ongoing merger or tidal interactions.
