Actually, given a recent enough layout engine, there is the possibility of 
not requiring client-side scripting here at all.  You can have transitions 
(and animations), too.

HTML¹:

  <div class="thumbnail-container">
    <div class="trigger">…</div>
    <img src="…" alt="…" class="thumbnail">
  </div>

CSS:

  .thumbnail-container {
    position: relative;
  }

  .trigger + img {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    opacity: 0;
    transition-duration: 0.5s;
    z-index: -1;
  }

  .trigger:hover + img,
  .trigger:focus + img
  {
    opacity: 1;
    z-index: auto;
  }

________
¹  use semantic markup instead of “div” elements where possible
