Distribution of the distances of the galaxies in the FOV of NGC 1052. The galaxies are distributed around two different distances, one at 13.5 Mpc containing NGC 1042 and NGC 1035 (and the dwarfs [KKS 2000] 04 and NGC 1052-DF4), and another group at 19 Mpc containing NGC 1052 and NGC 1047. The image is a color composite of the SDSS filters g, r, and i, being the black and white background the sum of all the filters.
