The galaxy presents as a system of interacting components. It's shape deviates significantly from a standard elliptical or spiral morphology, appearing perturbed and asymmetric. Evident are at least two distinct bright, relatively compact knots of concentrated light, likely representing the coalescing nuclei of merging galaxies. A fainter concentration of light is apparent near the bottom of the system as well. The overall color is predominantly redder in hue, suggesting an older stellar population and a relative lack of recent star formation across the system. Tidal features appear to be present, with faint extensions emerging from the core region. There is a reasonable presence of dust apparent in the overall structure, obscuring some of the central light from the potential merging bodies. Overall, this appears to be a merging system of galaxies undergoing significant gravitational interaction.
