unknown - The Rebellions of the Hōgen and Heiji Eras - 17th century v127 - STICKER Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal

A painted screen in the Yamato-e tradition, this design stages the armoured clashes of the Hōgen and Heiji rebellions in a field of gold cloud.

Visual Elements & Composition

Gold leaf clouds drift across the surface and divide the scene into bands of action. Armoured warriors with swords and archers with quivers of arrows occupy the foreground, set against wooden palace walls and a single pine tree. The palette runs on warm grey, dark green, crimson red and pale wood tan, with the gold doing the work of light and distance.

Meaning & Symbolism

The two mid-twelfth-century rebellions mark the point where the samurai class first shaped who would sit on the Japanese throne. The contest between the Taira and Minamoto clans led directly to the shogunate, and the walls and courtly setting show the Heian court losing its grip. Painted in the 17th century, the screen looks back on that upheaval through the Edo period's taste for retelling heroic and tragic history, bridging classical epic literature and the aesthetics of its own age.

On the Sticker

A kiss-cut sticker is cut to its own outline, so the warriors, clouds and palace walls read as a single shape rather than a framed rectangle. It suits indoor decor and smooth, flat surfaces such as laptops, journals and windows, where the gold clouds catch light 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.
