Morphology
unobscured = obscured (transparent) = un + obscure + ed
Formed by adding the negation prefix 'un-' to 'obscured'; the meaning is a regular and directly inferable negation.
Etymology
Unobscured is made of un- 'not' and obscured, from the word obscure which means 'hidden' or 'dark'. So, something unobscured is not hidden or covered, like a view with no clouds or a vase placed where everyone can see it.
