An Andy Warhol watercolor of an early Apple Macintosh logo is coming to auction on Feburary 1 via—what else?—an online auction.

The artwork, which was made circa 1985, is estimated to fetch $30,000 when it appears at Woodshed Art Auctions in Franklin, Massachusetts, and will likely appeal to both Warhol and Mac enthusiasts alike. “Warhol’s work appears effortless, but the discovery of working color studies like the Apple Macintosh painting reveals that each finished image is the refinement of trials and experimentation,” Woodshed auctioneer Bruce Wood told artnet News. “In a way, this reflects the growth of the products he’s chosen to depict.”
