The galaxy exhibits a morphology that is suggestive of an ongoing or recent merger event. The primary body of the galaxy appears relatively smooth and spheroid-like in shape, but is visibly distorted. There is a concentration of light toward the center, but the overall structure deviates noticeably from a regular elliptical form. A secondary concentration of light is seen in the form of a redder/more orange region that seems to be separated from the main body of the galaxy by what appears to be a connecting bridge of material, suggesting an interaction. There is no clear disk component, but rather a disturbed morphology with a light blueish halo. The system is not highly symmetric, and the overall impression is that of a gravitationally interacting system heading towards a single, relaxed object. Based on its color profile, it's likely undergoing active star formation.
