Morphology

unbathed = bathed (transparent) = un + bathe + ed

The prefix 'un-' negates the adjective 'bathed', making the meaning clear.

Etymology

Unbathed comes from un- meaning 'not' and bathe meaning 'to wash' or 'to cover'. Think of a room 'bathed in light' — so unbathed in this sense means 'not covered' or 'not soaked' in a particular substance or light.
