You have already been advised on how to insert a picture, but if it doesn't
show, go to Tools > Options > View and check 'Show picture placeholders'.
 
Your advice to check the picture placeholders box will cause
images to DISappear from the screen, which is the opposite effect
that the OP needs.

Some time ago I had the problem, that images I inserted into Word files
were invisible, except in 'Edit' mode. I read here that checking 'Show
placeholders' corrected that, and it did.

However, my 'Normal' template may have been corrupt or there may have
been some other problem with the Winword. That could also have been the
OP's problem.
 
"Picture placeholders" are empty boxes that are mere placeholders for the
pictures themselves. You need to clear the check box for "Picture
placeholders" and check the box for "Drawings" in order to see all pictures
(in Print Layout view; "drawings" are never displayed in Normal view).
