This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical-like galaxy. It exhibits a centrally concentrated brightness profile, with the core region being significantly brighter and more intensely colored than the outer regions. The overall color appears to be reddish-yellow, indicative of an older stellar population. There is a slight elongation to the galaxy's shape, suggesting it might be a prolate spheroid rather than a perfect sphere. There is no clear evidence of spiral arms, dust lanes, or ongoing major mergers from the image. The smoothness of the galaxy suggests it is either an elliptical galaxy or a lenticular galaxy viewed at a large angle to its disk. There may be subtle signs of minor disturbances in the galaxy's outer regions but further observations would be needed to confirm.
