Culpeper, Va. Officers Of The 80th New York Infantry, Provost Guard (U.S. Civil War) Pint Glass 16oz

This black-and-white photograph captures a group of uniformed Union officers posed outdoors in Culpeper, Virginia, during the American Civil War.

Visual Elements & Composition

The image is built from pale, mid and dark greys, with the bright tones falling on the officers' uniforms and the canvas tents. Some men sit upright on chairs while others recline on the ground, so the group forms a loose, relaxed cluster that fills the centre of the frame. Two canvas tents stand behind them, with tall trees rising in the background. The photographic frame is rectangular, and two small numerals, 63 and 17, are visible in the picture.

Meaning & Symbolism

The men belonged to the 80th New York Infantry, also known as the Twelfth Militia, and served as provost guard, the unit responsible for discipline among the troops, for managing logistics and for holding prisoners. Culpeper sat on the Orange and Alexandria Railroad, which made it essential ground for Union control in Virginia. The photograph therefore shows the administrative side of the war, the officers who kept an occupied town in order behind the front lines.

On the Mixing Glass

A mixing glass is a tall, curved vessel that is turned slowly in the hand, so the group photograph wraps around the surface as the glass moves. The composition's central cluster sits well in that curve, and the grey tones rest easily against the drink.

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.
