Lange Attribute mit unverändertem Bezug auflösen
Unpack participial phrases while preserving the described group, actor and time relationship.
A participial attribute can contain time, place and other complements before its noun. Identify the head noun first, then reconstruct the relationship. In the source, restaurierten refers to a prior restoration of the paintings, wartenden to guests waiting at the reference moment, and angekommenen to visitors who arrived themselves. Partizip II is therefore not a universal signal of passive meaning. Expand the whole phrase, not only its final word.
Die im vergangenen Jahr restaurierten Gemälde sind lichtempfindlich.
The paintings restored last year are sensitive to light.
Gemeint sind nur die Bilder, die damals restauriert wurden.
Only the pictures restored at that time are meant.
Die auf eine Führung wartenden Gäste stehen im Foyer.
The guests waiting for a guided tour are standing in the foyer.
Die am Morgen angekommenen Besucher melden sich an.
The visitors who arrived in the morning are registering.
Das Partizip allein legt nicht jede Zeitbeziehung fest.
The participle alone does not determine every temporal relationship.
Eine verständliche Umformung muss den Bezug erhalten.
A clear reformulation must preserve the reference.

Die im letzten Jahr restaurierten Bilder → die Bilder, die im letzten Jahr restauriert wurden. Die wartenden Gäste → die Gäste, die warten. Die angekommenen Gäste → die Gäste, die angekommen sind. Endings depend on the noun phrase; the semantic relation depends on the verb and context.
