History
The painting was first unveiled at a party in New Orleans on September 20, 2004, with Boggs, her daughter Cokie Roberts, and artist Ned Bittinger present. On September 27, 2004, the painting was unveiled in the Rayburn Room inside the United States Capitol. Boggs was present along with her daughter Cokie Roberts, who was the mistress of ceremonies for the presentation. It is displayed in the Lindy Claiborne Boggs Congressional Women’s Reading Room, adjacent to the National Statuary Hall. The room was previously used as the House Speaker's office before the Senate and House wings were added to the Capitol in 1857 and is the same room where President John Quincy Adams died. Bittinger included a small replica of the Car of History clock in the portrait, which has been present in the old House Chamber since 1819, to show Boggs' love of history.
