Okay, so I’ve decided to try a different tactic and am still not getting the background image to appear in the widget.

$backgroundimage = get_field('widget_background_image', 'widget_' . $widget_id);

	register_sidebar( array(
		'name'          => __( 'Widgets', 'tempestcorp' ),
		'id'            => 'page-widget',
		'description'   => __( 'Appears on any of the assigned pages.', 'tempestcorp' ),
		'before_widget' => '<section id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s" style="background-image: url(' . $backgroundimage['url'] . ');">',
		'after_widget'  => '</section>',
		'before_title'  => '<h2 class="widget-title">',
		'after_title'   => '</h2>',
	) );

Location Rule:
Widget = Widget Block Widget

Inside the widget (Capture.PNG). But still no image. I am left with (Capture2.PNG).

On top of that, the <section id=””> is stripped.
