The Peninsula, Va. Lts. George A. Custer, Nicolas Bowen, And William G. Jones (U.S. Civil War) Pint Glass 16oz

This black-and-white photograph holds three Union lieutenants together in a woodland camp, their sabers and dark uniforms set against the pale grey tones of an 1860s plate.

Visual Elements & Composition

The frame is built from near-black uniforms and mid-grey foliage, with the lightest tones falling on faces and the bright edges of the photographic plate. Two officers sit on a camp stool while a third stands behind them in a wide-brimmed hat, forming a tight vertical group. Fallen branches run across the clearing, giving the scene a rough, unposed texture.

Meaning & Symbolism

The image records the camaraderie and duty of officers serving in the Virginia Peninsula during the 1862 Peninsula Campaign, the Union offensive led by General George B. McClellan against the Confederate capital at Richmond. Lieutenant George A. Custer appears here before he became a famous cavalry general, which gives the portrait its historical weight. Photographs like this one were sent home as keepsakes and now survive as records of the people behind the mobilization.

On the Pint Glass

A pint glass is held at arm's length and turned in the hand, so this portrait reads best as a scene seen up close. The tall, curved surface lets the group stand in a single column, with the officers' figures stacked in the same way the glass rises from its base.

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.
