Bogle created genre paintings, including Reading to Grandfather in 1890 , and portraits, including that of Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli in 1892 , which was later used to decorate 10 Downing Street . For many years he lived as an illustrator for newspapers, magazines and book publishers.
In the period between 1883 and 1893 he exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts and in galleries on Suffolk Street in London, such as the Royal Society of British Artists . During his studies in Düsseldorf he was represented at the Royal Scottish Academy .
