The galaxy exhibits an overall yellowish-white hue, suggesting a population of older stars, though there is also some evidence of ongoing star formation. The light is generally smooth in texture with several distinct bulges, and no obvious spiral arm structures are visible. There is a primary, dominant bulge with a secondary bulge that is almost completely detached from the primary bulge. There is a small concentration of redder light at the bottom of the galaxy. The general morphology implies a system undergoing or having recently undergone a merger event, with significant tidal disturbance and potential for bursts of star formation triggered by the interaction. The galaxy is fairly compact. The galaxy shape has an in-between roundness, with most of its light concentrated in the center of the galaxy.
