The galaxy appears to be undergoing a significant interaction or merger event. The primary body of the galaxy exhibits a relatively smooth morphology, displaying a centrally concentrated luminosity profile. However, a distinct tidal tail or stream of stellar material extends prominently from this central region. This stream exhibits a clumpy structure, suggesting ongoing star formation within the tidal debris. The color gradient within the system indicates a change in stellar populations; the central body has a bluer hue, potentially indicating younger stars, while the tidal stream displays a reddish color, possibly indicative of an older stellar population or dust obscuration. The overall shape of the galaxy is elongated, deviating substantially from a perfect elliptical or spiral form. There is evidence of what appears to be a minor disturbance or secondary merging event that has created a lopsided appearance and a disturbance of the main galaxy disk. There is no strong evidence of spiral arm structure. The central bulge of the galaxy appears smooth and featureless.
