A 12′ × 12′ combined image of the Cousins R image from CAHA2.2m telescope and the three photographic B, G, R images from CAHA1.23m telescope. This particular image is only used to show the outer faint structures of the galaxy (e.g. the pseudo-ring, the northern region in a magenta ellipse or the eastern diffuse emission pointed out by the yellow arrow), not for any physical measurement. The inner coloured area corresponds to an SDSS image of CIG 96 down to ∼24 mag arcsec⁻² (SDSS r band) and is used as reference.
