Does gravitational lensing make an image show twice or mirrored?

Gravitational lensing shows an image twice, or 4 times, or as an arc. See

Is what an example? 1237660759462576765? Most examples would appear in the object's references.

Something I found earlier that looks like the same thing. Example is the wrong term.

Well, what you are seeing are fuzzy blobs, which are either satellite galaxies or foreground stars.

I did move the object to its own discussion https://talk.galaxyzoo.org/#/boards/BGZ0000003/discussions/DGZ0002h43?page=1&comment_id=5904740a933b5d08a40010b0
I don't see any spiral feature. 8µm does show the gas (fluorescence), so spiral arms would be visible at this wavelengths. Just like this spiral galaxy NGC7793
