unknown - Shaka (Shakyamuni), the Historical Buddha, with Two Attendant Bodhisattvas and Sixteen - 14th century v5 - STICKER Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal

This design presents Shaka, the Historical Buddha, seated at the centre of a 14th-century Japanese hanging scroll, flanked by two attendant bodhisattvas and accompanied by sixteen venerated figures.

Visual Elements & Composition

The scene is built on a cream ground with black ink and near-black line work. Shaka sits at the centre, the largest and most central figure, while the two bodhisattvas stand at either side, establishing a symmetrical, hierarchical arrangement. The sixteen figures fill the surrounding space in measured rows, so the eye moves from the central teacher outward. The source sheet also carries printed black columns of Japanese characters, with the names of Tokyo and Osaka visible, giving the image a documentary, letterpress quality.

Meaning & Symbolism

Shaka is the historical founder of Buddhism, the teacher who reached full awakening and then shared the path out of suffering. The two bodhisattvas assist his teaching, embodying compassion and wisdom, while the sixteen revered elders represent the transmission of the dharma across generations. The arrangement expresses the wider cosmological order of the Buddhist pantheon. Created in the Kamakura or Nanbokuchō period, the work reflects an era shaped by Esoteric and Zen practice, when Japanese painters adapted continental techniques to local devotional needs. Scrolls like this were focal points for ritual, meditation and ancestral veneration in temples and monasteries.

Designed for the Sticker

A kiss-cut sticker follows its own outline, so the figures and their surrounding forms are cut close to the edge of the artwork rather than sitting inside a rectangle. The central Shaka becomes the focal point of the piece, with the attendant figures and rows of sixteen framing him. Because the sticker is applied flat and handled one piece at a time, the composition is read up close, detail by detail, in the way the original scroll was studied by those who worshipped before it.

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.
