This galaxy appears to be undergoing a major merging event. There are a few primary regions of high stellar density. The primary region in the lower portion of the galaxy is very dense, while the upper regions are far less so. The galaxy is yellowish-white in color, suggesting an older stellar population, though the lighter regions contain some bluer stars, which may indicate some star formation. The overall shape is disturbed and irregular, lacking a defined disk or spiral structure. The galaxy exhibits a high degree of central concentration, appearing relatively compact. The outer regions fade into a very diffuse halo. There is a hint of a tidal tail extending from one of the merger components, further evidence of ongoing gravitational interaction. There are a few redder regions within the outer halo, which may indicate older and more evolved stellar populations, or high levels of dust.
