The Apple Logo is one of the most iconic and recognizable corporate logos in history. It’s so well known that you don’t need a name to accompany the logo. The logo says it all. But the logo has not always been as you see it today. The current Apple Logo is the third logo adopted by the company.
Apple’s first logo depicts Sir Isaac Newton sitting under an apple tree, with an apple dangling precipitously above his head. This logo lasted barely a year. This was replaced by a logo designed by Rob Janoff- The Rainbow Apple with a bite. The colored stripes were conceived to make the logo more accessible. This logo lasted from 1976 to 1998. After 1998 till present, the logo bears a modern monochromatic look that has taken on a variety of sizes and colors over the past few years.
Though Apple changed its logo, the Rainbow Apple was a beautiful design that inspired passion among many artists. The Rainbow Apple has been portrayed in a multitude of imaginative ways, creating the most beautiful artworks.
