The galaxy appears to be an interacting system, possibly in the later stages of a merger. There are two distinct components visible. The primary component exhibits a relatively smooth, elliptical morphology with a concentrated, bright core. Its color is yellowish-orange, suggesting an older stellar population and a relative lack of ongoing star formation. 

The secondary component is fainter and less defined, with a bluer, diffuse appearance indicative of a younger stellar population and potentially more active star formation. There is evidence of tidal distortion, with the suggestion of a faint tidal tail or bridge extending from the secondary component. The overall shape is elongated and irregular, with a moderately high inclination. This points to a significant disturbance of its original structure, likely due to the gravitational interaction.

Given the apparent close proximity and tidal features, the two components are likely gravitationally bound and in the process of merging into a single, larger galaxy.
