The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elliptical-like structure with a noticeable central bulge that appears yellowish in color. The outer regions of the galaxy exhibit a fainter, bluer hue, suggestive of a younger stellar population compared to the core. While primarily smooth in appearance, there's a subtle hint of a disk-like structure extending along its major axis, indicating it might be an intermediate type between a pure elliptical and a spiral galaxy. There's no obvious evidence of strong spiral arm structure or major mergers in this image, though subtle disturbances might be present. The shape is moderately elongated. The overall impression is of a galaxy with a dominant older stellar population concentrated in the bulge, with some ongoing star formation activity in the outer regions.
