The galaxy appears to be a merging system. It has a generally smooth morphology with a significant fraction of its light concentrated in what appear to be two distinct, bright, yellowish-white cores. There is a fainter, more diffuse, reddish-tinted halo surrounding the central region. The overall shape of the system is somewhat elongated, though moderately roundish, suggesting it is not yet fully coalesced after the apparent merger. There are no clear signs of strong spiral arm structures or a well-defined disk. The lack of blue color suggests a relatively low rate of recent star formation. There is an obvious disturbance present, and the object may indeed be a merger of two objects.
