holding image

English translation: placeholder or "preview" image

English term or phrase: holding image
A company that is a provider of rich digital content for E-commerce sites (i.e. digitizes product images and data) has in its product offering the following types of photographs:
''…..
SRP Angled - Front Top (SRP = shelf-ready packaging)
SRP Angled - Front Left
……
Airbrushed SRP
Out of Pack Range Shot
Extra Fill Airbrushed
XXX holding image
ID shot with XXX logo
…..''

XXX means a large retailer or supermarket chain (this company does business with multiple retailers).
That's all I have - just ,,XXX holding image". Would anybody have a clue what ''holding image'' means in such context? Image of a person holding a XXX-branded bag?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Explanation:
It is a preview to the full size image, or to a video to be played, a lower-resolution way to load the image to be recognized on the web page with the choice to see it in further detail by clicking on it to go to the "full-resolution" image.
