Figure 17 shows the standard example after $\bgroup\color{DEFcolor}$n$\egroup$ =20 time-steps for the Lax-Wendroff and the Beam-Warming scheme displaying overshooting post- and pre-shock oscillations.

This Gibb's phenomenon is closely related to overshoot of parabolic (or higher-order) interpolation schemes.
