Morphology
unskinned = skinned (transparent) = un + skin + ed
The prefix 'un-' clearly negates the meaning of 'skinned', making the meaning transparent.
Etymology
Unskinned comes from the prefix un- meaning 'not' and the word skin meaning 'outer layer'. So, unskinned means 'not having the skin removed', for example food that still has its skin on.
