Description Sébastien Wilmet 2016-07-24 18:34:58 UTC 
I have a reproducible bug.

1. Have the Adwaita GTK+ theme by default.
2. In gnome-tweak-tool, change GTK+ theme to "High Contrast"
3. Show the desktop, still OK.
4. Change the GTK+ theme back to Adwaita.
-> The desktop background is all white/blank.

A log-out/log-in doesn't bring back my background image. I need to reboot.

I use the GNOME Classic session in Fedora 24.

I wasn't sure whether it's gnome-shell or nautilus which draws the background.

But with:
$ killall nautilus

The background image reappears correctly.
Comment 3 Florian Müllner 2016-07-24 19:10:36 UTC 
Well, gnome-shell is drawing the background, but in the classic session nautilus overlays the desktop icons. This sounds like the desktop window loses its transparency on theme changes.
