The observed galaxy presents an overall disk-like morphology, viewed at a significant inclination. There is a bright, concentrated central bulge or core region which contributes substantially to the overall luminosity. Fainter diffuse light is seen surrounding the central area, extending outwards in what appears to be a distorted disk. There is evidence of minor disturbance with a possible tidal tail feature or distorted arm visible on one side of the galaxy. Patches of differential color suggest regions of active star formation within the disk. Overall, the galaxy exhibits traits suggestive of a system undergoing or having recently undergone a minor merging event.
