The code below should do the trick.
However, I'm looking for a way to make the image over transparent to 50%. It doesn't seem to work with the 'Over' compose method. The only way to do it would be to create a PNG with an alpha transparency set to 50%, but I can't find a way to make one with Image::Magick or GD. Has anyone have an idea?

     $image_over->Read("over.gif");
     $image_under->Read("under.jpg");

     $image_over->Transparent("white"); # Set the transp. color
     $image_under->Composite(
      compose => 'Over',
      opacity => 50, # Doesn't seem to work with 'Over'
      x => 20,
      y => 25,
      image => $image_over,
        ) ;
     $image_under->Write("Composite.jpg");
