Swedish Macintosh SE advertisement artwork from 1987
“These amazing oil-on-canvas and mixed media paintings were lovingly adorned with Macintosh SEs for a Sweden-only ad campaign all the way back in 1987. Erik Saxen produced these original works (inspired by a number of famous artists) for Apple’s marketing, but is now seeking a collector to take them off his hands. Sure, they’re masterfully painted, but more interestingly come from a time when Apple, a more innocent underdog, could portray their products as fine art without coming off as arrogant.” (via myoldmac.net - Swedish Macintosh SE advertisement campaign artwork)
