This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical system, possibly an early-type galaxy. Its light distribution suggests a centrally concentrated structure with a gradual decline in surface brightness towards the outer regions. The color is somewhat homogenous across the visible structure, trending towards the redder end of the spectrum. There is no obvious spiral arm structure, dust lanes, or regions of active star formation evident in this image. The overall form is moderately round, with no strong indication of a highly elongated or flattened shape. There may be some minor disturbances due to a potential gravitational interaction with a neighbor, but this is uncertain.
