My png object disappeared and I can only see the outline of a box

I imported this png drawing into Animate and I was able to keyframe it.

When I went to playback the animation, I noticed the png has disappeared.

When I click on one of the keyframes of the png, all I see on the stage is this blue box.

Adobe Animate shows the png object in the library but it won't show on the stage.

Correct answer Colin Holgate

In each layer in the timeline there is a little colored rectangle, just to the right of the padlock column. If you have clicked on that it would make just the outline of the PNG show up. Try clicking to make the rectangle be filled in, instead of just an outline.
