Fig. 1.

Pseudo-colour image of NGC 4424 obtained combining the NGVS (Ferrarese et al. 2012) optical u and g in the blue channel, the r and NB in the green, and the i and the continuum-subtracted Hα in the red. At the assumed distance of the galaxy (16.5 Mpc), 1 arcmin = 4.8 kpc. Stellar shells are not detected down to the NGVS surface brightness limit of μg = 29 mag arcsec−2.
