The galaxy presents as an oblong, cigar-shaped system, with a possible secondary, smaller component in close proximity. The dominant galaxy exhibits a smoother morphology, with a yellow to orange color gradient, suggesting an older stellar population. The red shift value suggests it's at a significant distance. Its size appears relatively compact. While a disk structure isn't immediately discernible, a general asymmetry in its shape hints at some form of past interaction or internal dynamic process. The smaller component shows a similar color profile, which could indicate a tidal dwarf galaxy in formation or a companion galaxy undergoing a merger. The relative smoothness of both components suggests a lack of significant ongoing star formation, although it could be occurring at a low level.
