Idaho has the only state seal designed by a woman. The official state seal (which also appears on Idaho's state flag) is actually an update of a painting by Emma Edwards Green that was selected for the Great Seal of the State of Idaho's design in 1891 (the original painting is held in trust by the Idaho Historical Society).
