This galaxy appears to be a relatively smooth, elliptical system. There is a bright, concentrated central bulge that dominates the overall luminosity. The galaxy has a slightly elongated shape. The color is generally yellowish-white in the center, suggesting an older stellar population. Towards the outer edges, the color shifts subtly towards the blue, possibly indicating the presence of some younger stars, although star formation is generally low. No spiral arms or other distinct features such as dust lanes are clearly visible in this image. There is no evidence of any major mergers or tidal disturbances. The galaxy's structure appears largely undisturbed.
