How bright is the Andromeda Galaxy?

How does the brightness of a quasar compare with that of a large galaxy?
I assume when you mean brightness, you mean apparent magnitude as opposed to absolute magnitude. The quasar 3C 273 has an apparent magnitude of about 12.8 whereas the brightest galaxy - the Large Magellanic Cloud has an apparent magnitude of 0.9. However, in absolute magnitudes, 3C 273 has an absolute magnitude of about -26.7 very similar to our own Sun.
What is the magnitude of a galaxy?
The magnitude of a galaxy will depend on a lot of factors, luminousity, size and distance from us.The apparent magnitude of the naked eye galaxies are:Large Magellanic Cloud +0.9Small Magellanic Cloud +2.7Andromeda Galaxy +3.4Triangulum Galaxy +5.7Centaurus A +7.8Bode's Galaxy +7.89Sculptor Galaxy +8.0Messier 83 +8.2

What is the difference between apparent magnitude and surface magnitude?
The two types are apparent magnitude, the magnitude of a star as it appears to us, and absolute magnitude, which is what a star's apparent magnitude would be at a standard distance of ten parsecs.
Who discovered the cartwheel galaxy?
Fritz Zwicky in 1941
