The galaxy appears to be a spiral galaxy undergoing a merger. There are two visible galactic nuclei, one brighter than the other, suggesting that they are in different stages of the merging process. Evident is a notable disk structure with clear spiral arm features. These arms are somewhat distorted, implying gravitational interaction. There is a moderate bulge component in the central region. Patches of bluer light are seen within the spiral arms and around the galactic nuclei, likely indicating regions of ongoing star formation. The overall color suggests a mixture of stellar populations, with both older, redder stars and younger, bluer stars present. The object exhibits a notable amount of disturbance, further supporting the classification as an interacting or merging system.
