The galaxy appears as a merging system of two distinct, roughly spherical components. Both components exhibit a smooth, concentrated light distribution with no discernible spiral arm structure or prominent dust lanes. The overall color is yellowish-orange, suggesting an older stellar population with relatively little ongoing star formation. There is some suggestion of tidal features or bridges connecting the two components indicating an ongoing gravitational interaction. The merging process seems well-advanced, considering the proximity and distorted shapes of the two galaxies involved.
