20 Things You Somehow Missed In Star Wars: The Clone Wars

As previously mentioned, Maul and his brother Savage Opress would eventually clash with Darth Sidious on Mandalore during season six's 'The Lawless' chapter.

And while the former apprentice of Palpatine made it out of that lightsaber showdown alive, the same could not be said for his hench sibling. 

It's in the wake of that fatal double-bladed stabbing, though, that a quite intriguing detail shows up in the background as Maul goes to check on his fallen apprentice.

With much of the attention being on a devastated Maul and dying Opress here, many didn't catch the massive mural behind them depicting a battle between Mandalorians and the Jedi. 

There's also another one of these murals visible in Pre Visla's meeting room earlier in the show's run, with Dave Filoni later noting how these cubist paintings were actually based on Picasso's Guernica anti-war creation.

Both of the pieces look absolutely stunning, it must be said, and you can only imagine how much work went into these incredibly detailed paintings that were only really visible for a few fascinating Clone Wars moments.
