Aquia Creek Landing, Virginia. Distant View Of Federal Supply Depot (U.S. Civil War) Pint Glass 16oz

Sailing schooners lie at anchor in a bay below a low waterfront point, in this black-and-white view of the Union supply depot at Aquia Creek Landing.

Visual Elements & Composition

Pale grey takes up most of the frame, with mid grey and light grey across the water and charcoal along the shoreline, and near-black accents in the darkest spots. The schooners sit at anchor in the middle of the bay, and a stone breakwater jetty reaches out from the point. Waterfront buildings cluster on the low land at the edge of the scene. A winding creek crosses the grassland beyond them, leading the eye back toward the water. The photograph is set in a rectangular frame, and the view is wide and calm.

Meaning & Symbolism

Aquia Creek flows into the Potomac, and its landing was a major transport point for the Union army. Ships brought supplies up the river, and the Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad carried them inland to the troops. The Confederacy first held the heights and fired on Union gunboats here in 1861, and the Union later seized the site and turned it into a large depot. The schooners at anchor stand for the sea and river traffic that kept the Army of the Potomac supplied through the war.

Shaped for the Pint Glass

A pint glass has a tall, curved surface, so the bay and its anchored schooners seem to wrap around it as it turns in the hand. The height of the vessel suits the long line of the creek and the stretch of the water. Lifting the glass brings the waterfront into view, much as a visitor would look out across the bay from the point.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
