I wonder if someone can help me untangle the current little mess I seem to be creating!
Author wants an image on facing page to each of 10 chapters in the bodypart of the document. Assume that everything else is working properly for this document (double-sided etc.), but other than before chapter 1, I can't seem to get my facing page image to appear where it should!
I didn’t see your original message.
Here’s my approach, as used in 
https://www.dreiviertelhaus.de/reihen/eka/lauf-los-buch/ :


\startsetups eka:normalheader
 
\setupheadertexts[chapter][{\feature[=normnum]\pagenumber}][{\feature[=normnum]\pagenumber}][]
\stopsetups

\startsetups eka:noheader
   \setupheadertexts[][][][]
\stopsetups

\startsetups eka:imagechapter
   \setupalign[flushleft]
   \doifelse{\structureuservariable{image}}{}{% if image empty, do nothing
   }{%
     \directsetup{eka:noheader}
     \vbox{%
       \blank[big]
 
\externalfigure[\structureuservariable{image}][width=0.8\textwidth]\par
     }
     \doifnot{\structureuservariable{motto}}{}{
       \vfill
       \vbox{%
         {\MottoFont\structureuservariable{motto}}
       }%
     }%
     \page[right]
     \vbox{%
       \doifnot{\structureuservariable{subtitle}}{}{
         {\SubtitleFont\structureuservariable{subtitle}}
       }%
     }%
   }%
   \blank[3*big]
   \directsetup{eka:normalheader}
   \setupalign[width]
\stopsetups


\define[2]\Nothing{} % do nothing

\setuphead[chapter][
   number=no,
   page=left,
   command=\Nothing,
   before=,
   after={\directsetup{eka:imagechapter}},
]


% example:

\startchapter
   [title={Chapter Title – here only used in list}]
   [author={},image=cow,
    subtitle={Subtitle – here a quote by the author},
    motto={Motto – here a short biography of the author}]

...

\stopchapter
