A Shattered Caisson: A Visual Echo of Civil War Devastation

This die-cut vinyl sticker presents a stark and poignant image drawn from the heart of the American Civil War: "A Shattered Caisson, Fredericksburg, Va." The artwork encapsulates the raw brutality of artillery warfare through its depiction of a destroyed caisson amidst the carnage of battle.

A Scene of Ruin

The design centers on a caisson, a two-wheeled ammunition cart, reduced to splinters and wreckage. The visual focus is intentionally on the devastating impact of enemy fire, reflecting the destruction that artillery barrages inflicted upon both equipment and those who served them. The presence of the caisson is a visual symbol of the essential role logistics played in the war efforts.

Symbolism of Loss

The design further amplifies the scene of destruction by including dead horses lying beside the wreckage. These creatures, vital to transporting the caisson, became casualties of war. The addition of the men (including General Herman Haupt) creates a direct connection between the viewer and the tragedy. The inclusion of the men symbolizes both the soldiers' struggle, the logistics, and the high cost of conflict.

A Silent Witness

This sticker offers a powerful visual connection to a pivotal moment in American history. It stands as a visual testament to the impact of artillery warfare and a lasting reminder of the human and logistical cost of the American Civil War.

Die-cut vinyl decals: precision-cut shapes on premium water-resistant vinyl with a matte laminate and UV protection — built to resist sun, rain and everyday wear for long-lasting use.

These die-cut decals are trimmed exactly to the design, producing crisp edges and a professional finish. They’re made from thick, water-resistant vinyl and finished with a matte UV laminate that reduces glare while protecting colors from fading.

The production process uses eco-solvent inks for dense, even color and a protective overlaminate that helps the decal survive outdoor exposure. Rated for multi-year outdoor life when applied to the right surface, these decals give a clean, matte look without sacrificing durability.

  • Material: premium water-resistant vinyl engineered for weather resistance.
  • Finish: matte laminate that mutes shine and guards against scratches.
  • Print: eco-solvent inks for solid blacks and vivid color depth.
  • Protection: UV laminate extends outdoor life and helps prevent fade.
  • Longevity: rated to last multiple years outdoors under normal conditions.

Die-cut decals adhere best to smooth, non-porous surfaces — glass, metal, coated plastics and finished wood. They work well on bottles, windows, laptops and vehicle windows for short- to medium-term outdoor use.

  1. Prep the surface: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth; for residue use mild soap and water and allow to dry fully.
  2. Peel and position: lift a corner of the liner, align the decal and lay it down slowly, pressing from the center outward.
  3. Seal: smooth the edges with a card or your thumb to ensure full contact and reduce trapping air.

Note: to keep adhesive performance in wet conditions, apply decals to very smooth surfaces (for example: glass). Avoid rough or heavily textured materials where the adhesive can’t form a full bond.

Maintenance is low-effort. Gently wipe decals with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp microfiber and light pressure will clean the surface — dry immediately afterward.

Avoid abrasive pads, strong solvents or power washers; these can scratch the laminate or lift edges. Proper care preserves the matte finish and keeps colors vivid for longer.

Sizes are specified by the longest side. For example, a 4″ decal measures four inches across its greatest dimension. The die-cut follows the artwork’s contour so the decal sits flush with clean, professional edges.

Small variations can occur with intricate outlines, but the listed measurement always reflects the maximum edge-to-edge length for accurate placement planning.
