Morphology

unpictured = pictured (transparent) = un + picture + ed

Meaning is directly formed by adding the productive negative prefix 'un-' to 'pictured' (picture + -ed), so the negated sense is obvious.

Etymology

Unpictured joins the prefix un- 'not' and picture 'a drawing or photo', so it means 'not shown in a picture'. That's why we use unpictured for people, scenes, or details that are not shown in an image.
