adumbrate

adumbrate \a-DUHM-breyt\ , verb;
1. To foreshadow; prefigure.
2. To produce a faint image or resemblance of; to outline or sketch.
3. To darken or conceal partially; overshadow.



I remember this word from the uproar over O.J.‘s Darkened Mug Shot and how it left Time magazine with egg on its face.
