perhaps in the GIS manager overlay the two raster images with transparency set
for the top one.

or in a xmonitor from the command line use d.shadedmap or d.his to overlay the
images with transparency.

see also the "cross hatch" trick shown in the GRASS Book to interleave the two
images in one display without transparency.
