- For many years, the Seattle Art Museum has trained people, called docents, who talk with school groups and other visitors about the artworks in the museum's galleries. In this September 1940 photo, a docent talks with three young women about a 1931 painting by Marc Tobey. The painting, "Algerian Landscape," is part of the museum's large collection of works by northwestern artists.
