The object appears to be a merging galaxy system. It exhibits a disturbed morphology, characterized by two distinct, bright nuclei, suggesting two galaxies in close proximity and gravitational interaction. The overall color profile indicates a relatively red population, hinting at older stellar populations and/or significant dust obscuration. The presence of a diffuse envelope surrounding the two primary components further supports the ongoing interaction and tidal disruption processes. Faint tidal features may be present, although the image resolution makes definitive confirmation difficult. A substantial fraction of the galaxy is smooth, but a disk-like feature could be obscured. There may be a minor disturbance from the merging process.
