This appears to be an artist's concept image. See NASA Solar System Exploration site (https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/asteroids-comets-and-meteors/asteroids/16-psyche/in-depth/ https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/asteroids-comets-and-meteors/as...). I am not an astronomer, but I'm pretty sure a picture with this kind of detail would not show stars in the background because the image of the object would wash them out. Also it just looks like it's painted.
