unknown - The Rebellions of the Hōgen and Heiji Eras - 17th century v52 - STICKER Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal

This design reproduces a Japanese folding screen painting of a military camp, with armoured figures seated in tents beneath gold leaf clouds.

Visual Elements & Composition

Gold dominates the surface, laid behind the scene as leaf clouds that frame the encampment. Against it sit tents in sage green, dark green and cream, with grey-white banners lifting above them. Black accents define the armour and the figures within the tents. The layout follows the flat, panel-based structure of screen painting, with the camp arranged across the picture plane rather than receding into deep perspective.

Meaning & Symbolism

The scene depicts the Hōgen (1156) and Heiji (1159) rebellions, the mid-twelfth-century conflicts between rival branches of the Imperial family and their samurai clans. These struggles ended the dominance of the aristocratic court and shifted power toward the warrior class, setting the stage for the Kamakura Shogunate. The gold clouds and seated warriors hold the drama of the period in a single calm moment: the court's authority giving way to military force. Painted in the 17th century, during the Edo period, the work belongs to a tradition that revisited the heroic and tragic sagas of earlier centuries.

On the Kiss-Cut Sticker

A kiss-cut sticker is cut to its own outline, so the gold clouds, tents and banners can stand on their own once separated from the screen's rectangular frame. The composition reads at close range, the way a screen is viewed up close, and it works on a laptop lid, a journal cover or a notebook page where the eye stays near the surface.

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.
