featured = feature (transparent) = feature + ed

Regular adjectival/past-participle formation from 'feature' meaning 'distinctive facial attribute', so the meaning 'having (notable) features' is directly derivable.

Etymology

Featured comes from the word feature, which comes from an old Latin word facies meaning 'face'. So to be featured in this sense is to have clear or strong parts of the face, as in 'sharp-featured'.
