The value inherit would cause the element to inherit the background-image of its
parent. This approach would not normally be taken, as the element??™s inherited
background image would most likely overlap the parent??™s image. In most cases, the
parent??™s background-image will be visible through the element??™s transparent
background unless another background-image or background-color has been set.

background-image will slide under the borders as per the specifications.
