Photograph by Eliza R. Scidmore
In a tinted black-and-white photograph dating to around the 1910s, women pose with cherry blossoms in Japan.
Photographer Eliza Scidmore served as the National Geographic Society's first female writer and board member and played a pivotal role in bringing the now beloved cherry trees to Washington, D.C.'s Potomac Park and Tidal Basin.
