The galaxy presents as a somewhat elliptical, likely a late-type elliptical, or early-type spiral, galaxy exhibiting a smooth, centrally concentrated light profile. The light appears fairly even, suggesting a lack of prominent spiral arms or significant dust lanes. The galaxy's color is yellowish-white, indicative of an older stellar population dominating the light output, however, there is a slightly bluer color toward the edges. There seems to be an object superimposed on this galaxy that is also yellowish, so there is the possibility that the yellowish-white color is from that object as well. If the object were not there, I would guess the color is more white than yellowish. The galaxy shows an offset, brighter central region. No strong evidence of a bar structure or ring is immediately apparent. Given the overall smooth appearance, I'd estimate that this galaxy exhibits only a low level of on-going star formation. There is evidence of it being potentially disturbed.
