NGFS DECam i′g′u′ (RGB) view of NGC 1427A. North is up, east is left; the arrow marks the direction to the Fornax cluster center. The MUSE mosaic footprint is shown in transparent red. White and black curves trace u′+g′+i′ isophotes at different surface-brightness levels (see legend). The dashed white circle marks the “northern clump” (Lee-Waddell et al. 2018); labeled red ellipses mark nearby dwarf candidates discussed in the text and listed in Table 2.
