Morphology

sightliness = sightly (transparent) = sight + ly + ness

Standard noun formation from the adjective 'sightly' indicating the quality or state.

Etymology

Sightliness comes from the common word sight, meaning 'what you can see', and the ending -liness, which turns an idea into 'the quality of being'. It is like the adjective sightly, so sightliness means the quality of being 'pleasant to look at'.
