The galaxy presents a largely smooth and elliptical morphology, with a high degree of central concentration. There's a noticeable radial color gradient, transitioning from a yellowish-white core to a bluish outer halo. While the galaxy appears largely undisturbed, there is a suggestion of subtle asymmetry in the outer regions, possibly indicative of minor gravitational interaction, past or present. The galaxy's overall roundness is between perfectly circular and elongated, closer to the latter. No distinct spiral arms or bar structures are discernible in the available image. Given its color profile, the galaxy likely possesses a significant population of older stars in its core. The bluish halo may suggest the presence of younger, hotter stars, implying ongoing, albeit possibly low-level, star formation in the outer regions. Overall, the galaxy is classified as an early-type galaxy due to its lack of spiral structure and a smooth morphology.
