The galaxy presents as a relatively smooth, elliptical-like structure with a dominant central bulge. The luminosity appears concentrated in the core, with a gradual decrease towards the outer regions. There are no readily discernible spiral arms or strong dust lane features apparent in the image. The color profile suggests a population of older stars. I see minimal evidence of ongoing, significant star formation regions within the visible light range. The galaxy has a hint of a disk. The shape is between round and cigar shaped. There is no evidence of any major merging events occurring with another galaxy but there may be minor disturbances.
