The galaxy presents a disturbed morphology, possibly indicative of an ongoing or recent merger event. There is a main body appearing relatively smooth and somewhat elliptical, and a secondary component that shows a more irregular structure. The primary body exhibits a yellowish hue, suggesting an older stellar population, whereas the second is more blue. This may mean that the older area is a larger, dying galaxy that has merged with a smaller, bluer and more active spiral galaxy. The system has an overall extended shape. There are no clear signs of distinct spiral arms or a prominent central bulge in this image.
