Antietam, Maryland. Dead of Stonewall Jackson's Brigade by Rail Fence on the Hagerstown Pike (U.S. Civil War) STICKER Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal

This design reproduces Alexander Gardner's September 1862 documentary photograph of fallen soldiers of Stonewall Jackson's brigade lying in the grass beside a split-rail fence on the Hagerstown Pike.

Visual Elements & Composition

Three prone figures lie in the grass, and a split-rail fence runs across the scene behind them. The image is a black and white photograph in a range of greys, from light grey in the open ground to dark grey in the shadowed bodies and fence line, with a white border around the plate. The composition is plain and unposed, and the stillness of the bodies sets the tone.

Meaning & Symbolism

The photograph was taken after the Battle of Antietam in Maryland, one of the bloodiest single days of the American Civil War, and it shows the aftermath of combat rather than the fighting itself. Gardner's work, which was shown in New York and Washington, brought the reality of the dead to a civilian public for the first time in this form. The image stands as a historical record of the war's cost and of the early documentary photography that made it visible.

On the Kiss-Cut Sticker

A kiss-cut sticker is cut to the outline of the fence and the figures, so the photograph sits on the surface as a clean shape with the back left intact. Its monochrome tones suit a notebook, a desk or a laptop lid, where the grain and detail of the grass can be read at close range.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
