Panoramic friezes, wall decorations
A 1913 trade catalogue of panoramic friezes and wall decorations issued by the Schmitz-Horning Company of Cleveland, Ohio, aimed at interior decorators and buyers of wall coverings. Its pictures are horizontal decorative panels: an Italian garden vista with cypresses, a plain ochre field framed by stylised urns and swags, a misty lakeside of tall trees at sunset, and a band of early aeroplanes, airship and horse-racing scenes, all in soft muted colour that a designer could borrow for border or frieze layouts.
