This galaxy appears to be undergoing a significant merger event. The primary body exhibits a relatively smooth morphology, although there are visible disturbances. The overall shape can be described as intermediate between round and elliptical. A secondary, less defined structure extends from the primary body, potentially indicating a tidal tail or disrupted companion galaxy. The color gradients suggest a mixed stellar population, with bluer regions potentially indicating ongoing star formation, particularly in the disrupted structure. There is an overall smooth quality to the galaxy's light distribution, yet clear signs of tidal disruption, implying a recent or ongoing interaction.
