Point Of Rocks, Va., Vicinity. Crew Of U.S. Army Gunboat General Foster Ashore With Howitzers (U.S. Civil War) Pint Glass 16oz

A wide black-and-white glass-plate photograph shows a rank of uniformed soldiers standing in a field beside field artillery on wheeled carriages, near Point of Rocks, Virginia.

Visual Elements & Composition

The composition is wide and horizontal, with white sky and pale ground taking up much of the frame and mid grey and dark grey setting the figures and guns. The soldiers stand in a line across the open field, and the howitzers sit on their wheeled carriages in front of them. Bare winter trees and a wooden fence line run along the back of the scene, giving the image a flat, documentary layout with no ornament beyond the subjects themselves.

Meaning & Symbolism

The photograph records the crew of the U.S. Army gunboat General Foster coming ashore with its howitzers during operations in the Point of Rocks area of Virginia. The gunboat connects the scene to riverine and coastal warfare, where vessels carried artillery that was then landed to fight on land. The image is a record of that movement, showing the men and their guns at the moment the river operation became a field one.

A Scene Set Wide

A mixing glass is tall and narrow at the base, so this wide horizontal scene sits across the front of the vessel rather than running up it. The line of soldiers and guns wraps the curved body, and the bare trees and fence line sit near the rim as the glass is held and turned.

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.

One size: 16 oz (≈0.47 L). Below are product dimensions to help with shelving, storage, and packaging choices.
