The galaxy appears to be undergoing a significant merger event. Two distinct nuclei are visible, one exhibiting a bluer color and the other a more yellow-red hue. The bluer nucleus appears less centrally concentrated and somewhat elongated, suggesting a disk-like structure viewed at an oblique angle. It shows signs of tidal disruption. The redder nucleus is more compact and centrally condensed. Substantial tidal tails and bridges of diffuse light extend outwards, indicating strong gravitational interactions between the merging galaxies. The overall system exhibits a disturbed morphology, lacking a clear, defined structure, which is consistent with ongoing merger activity.
