This galaxy appears to be undergoing a significant merger event. There seem to be two distinct components within the system, both of which are heavily distorted. The overall color index suggests relatively old stellar populations, with a slight shift to bluer colors likely indicating regions of ongoing star formation, even if subdued. The morphology deviates significantly from a simple elliptical or spiral type. Based on this information, this galaxy is likely an interacting system with complex tidal features.
