MARGARET SCHLOEMAN’S FOX CHASE – Schumacher Wallpaper
Design story
Margaret Schloeman’s Fox Chase wallpaper channels the spirited elegance of the early 20th century, blending the charm of vintage equestrian scenes with a distinctive Art Deco flair. Inspired by a 1931 New Yorker magazine cover illustration, this pattern brings a lively yet refined mood to any interior, evoking a nostalgic yet modern atmosphere perfect for those who appreciate timeless style.
The wallpaper’s beauty lies in its dynamic composition and thoughtful detailing. The medium-scale fox hunt motif features riders on horseback, hunting dogs, and a dense forest backdrop composed of stylized trees that create a rhythmic flow across the surface. The pattern balances intricate line work with generous negative space, allowing the scene to breathe while maintaining a sense of movement and storytelling that captivates the eye.
Rendered in soft sage and warm brown tones, the color palette enhances the wallpaper’s naturalistic yet graphic quality. In daylight, the sage green evokes a fresh, calming feel reminiscent of woodland landscapes, while the soft brown adds depth without overpowering. In evening light, these hues take on a muted richness, subtly shifting with the room’s ambiance. The paper’s finish offers a gentle sheen that interacts beautifully with light, accentuating texture without glare.
What you’re seeing
This wallpaper depicts a classic fox hunt scene set within a dense forest of stylized green trees. Riders on horses and their hunting dogs are rendered with clear, detailed line work that captures the energy and tradition of the hunt. The pattern’s texture is smooth with a subtle tactile quality that enhances the visual interest without detracting from the design’s clarity.
There are no metallic or embossed effects on this wallpaper; instead, it relies on strong graphic contrasts and the interplay of sage and soft brown tones to bring the scene to life. The composition’s repetition is carefully balanced, giving the impression of continuous movement through the wooded landscape, making it an engaging feature wall or an elegant backdrop throughout an entire room.
