This galaxy presents as a relatively compact, smooth object. The overall color appears slightly reddish, suggesting an older stellar population with less ongoing star formation. It appears to be elliptical in shape, and the light is fairly concentrated towards the center. There's a faint, diffuse halo of light surrounding the main body, though it's not particularly extensive. No distinct spiral arms or prominent dust lanes are visible in this image. There might be a very slight asymmetry to the galaxy's shape, but it is subtle.
