The galaxy appears to be undergoing a significant merger event. Two distinct, relatively smooth, elliptical-like components are visible, each exhibiting a central concentration of light and a gradual decrease in luminosity outward. Both components appear slightly elongated, with a subtle tidal bridge connecting them. There appears to be more light in the redder wavelengths than bluer. There are no apparent spiral arms or dust lanes. The overall morphology suggests a late-stage merger, where the individual galaxies are in the process of coalescing into a single, larger system. This combined system appears to be of a relatively large size for galaxies at the detected distance.
