ROSE MARIE BOGLEY: ELEGANCE ASIDE

Nov 7, 2025 - Mar 22, 2026

Currently, the Forrest E. Mars, Sr. Exhibit Hall features Rose Marie Bogley: Elegance Aside, an exhibition highlighting the recent Library acquisition of the Rose Marie Bogley Archives. Donated by her daughter Hilleary Bogley, and The Rose Marie Bogley Revocable Trust, it is a rich collection of photos and awards amassed over six decades by the equestrienne. A selection of these will be on display alongside her 1981 National Horse Show trophy, the recent donation of Rose Marie’s portrait by Richard Stone Reeves, and objects on loan from her family. The photographs, in particular, exemplify Rose Marie’s remarkable equestrian life. They range from fox hunting trips in Ireland to horse shows in Southampton to carriage driving in Middleburg.
Additionally, there are portraits of Rose Marie with Mamie Eisenhower, Rosalynn Carter, and Jimmy Carter during multiple White House visits, as well as Rose Marie playing golf with Sam Snead.
