The galaxy presents as a generally smooth object, appearing somewhat elliptical in shape. The light is concentrated towards the center, suggesting a defined nucleus or bulge. A subtle color gradient is observed, with the central region exhibiting a yellowish-white hue, potentially indicating an older stellar population. The outer regions display a more bluish tint, which may be indicative of ongoing or recent star formation. There is no apparent spiral structure or significant dust lanes visible in this image. The overall appearance suggests a relatively evolved galaxy with a dominant smooth component. No indications of a major merger are apparent, but the galaxy cannot be ruled out as being a merger.
