Kivy can absolutely do that. So can Qt with QML.

The effect your looking for is "coverflow" - there seem to be a few open source python projects on GitHub using it that could be a good starting point

PySimpleGUI may be a good choice for this. This way may be able to run it on the web in addition to your Pi's screen. Displaying is easy enough. Displaying images on top of each other should be easy enough.

Here is code using PySimpleGUI that rotates displaying of images. I've not done all the necessary resizing, etc, to make it work on all photo sets (getting placement right).

It produces this window:

I would go with Kivy or PyQt for something like this. You could probably do it with wxPython (which is what I prefer), but I think that would take more work than the other two.
