superimposes
Places one over
Superimposes means to place or lay something over something else, typically so both remain at least partially visible.
In film and photography, images are superimposed when layered together: The director superimposed the ghost over the living room scene.
The term extends to abstract layering: She superimposes her own interpretations onto the text.
