The galaxy appears as a single, relatively smooth, luminous entity. Its overall shape is predominantly round, though some minor asymmetry is present. The light distribution is centrally concentrated with a bright core. There is an overall yellow-red color in the central region, gradually fading to a slightly bluer hue in the extended halo. No distinct spiral arms or prominent dust lanes are visible. There appears to be a large secondary mass close to the galaxy. The two objects appear to be undergoing a merging event, showing gravitational disturbances.
