Try setting background to textwindow of GtkTextView.
you can get text_window through gtk_text_view_get_window
(textview,window_type);
I don't remember exact syntax though.

Hi,
I already wrote a simple demo in the past when working on my project, this may help you, feel free to explore the codes because this is a really simple one:

#include <gtk/gtk.h>

int
main (int    argc,
      char **argv)
{
  GtkWidget *window;
  GtkWidget *textv;
  GdkWindow *textv_window;
  GdkPixmap *pixmap;
  GdkColor color;

 
  gtk_init (&argc, &argv);
 
  window = gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
  gtk_window_set_default_size (GTK_WINDOW (window), 400, 600);
  g_signal_connect (window, "destroy", G_CALLBACK (gtk_main_quit), NULL);
 
  textv = gtk_text_view_new ();
  gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (window), textv);
 
  gtk_widget_show_all (window);
 
  /* Windows are are nonexistent before the widget has been realized. */
  textv_window = gtk_text_view_get_window (GTK_TEXT_VIEW (textv),
                                           GTK_TEXT_WINDOW_TEXT);
  gdk_color_parse ("#68604d", &color);
  pixmap = gdk_pixmap_create_from_xpm ((GdkDrawable *) textv_window, NULL,
                                       &color, "back-gimp.xpm");
  gdk_window_set_back_pixmap (textv_window, pixmap, FALSE);
 
  gtk_main ();
 
  return 0;
}
