Any ideas what this is?

Saw these panels at a TS. Have no idea what it is called. The material the panel is made of looks like some sore of clay or ceramic. When held up to a bright light, an almost 3d image is seen.

It's called a lithophane.

Am I the only one who ebayed the term and found the Geisha girls hidden at the bottom of teacups?
