It was, but note it's a scan, and so the point was to show off that it could reproduce photos. E.g. from Compute! September 1985[1].
Sachs was of course also immensely popular, and did enough work that I have no doubt more Amiga users saw his pictures.
Here's a page with a lot more of his pictures[2], including the color cycling effect. (There's also a fantastic comparison far down that page of a sharp version vs. a VHS recording that shows just how much color bleed we had to deal with, and how it affected the art.
