You can change the background directly from the desktop. To do this, right-click anywhere on the desktop, making sure not to click on an icon, and choose the Change Desktop Background option.

+ +

A more indirect approach would be to go to SystemPreferencesAppearance. Select the Background tab.

+ +

Under the Background tab, select an image for the desktop background. The selected image will be superimposed on the desktop background color.

+ +

You can use a color instead of an image as a desktop background. To set the desktop background color, select a color from the available options. A solid color or a gradient of two colors may be used.

+ +

Click Close.

+ + +

When using an image as a background, the desktop background color becomes visible if the image is transparent or if the image does not cover the entire desktop.
