The galaxy presents as an apparent interacting system, potentially in the late stages of a merger. One component appears as a disk galaxy, viewed nearly edge-on. The light from this component is notably reddish, suggesting an older stellar population and/or significant dust obscuration. The central bulge appears prominent and boxy, with the majority of the galaxy's light concentrated toward the bulge. There is a faint, wispy tail-like feature extending from the disk component. The second component is more diffuse and amorphous, and its appearance indicates significant tidal disturbance, likely resulting from the interaction. This component exhibits a bluer color, which might signify ongoing star formation. The tidal features suggest a strong gravitational interaction between the two galaxies. Overall, the system exhibits characteristics of a galaxy merger event.
