desktop-base is supposed to handle that, but it's not cooperating. You can
bypass it by adding the following (one) line to /etc/default/grub

GRUB_THEME=/usr/share/desktop-base/grub-themes/desktop-grub-them/theme.txt

and then running update-grub.

If you want a different background image, then you could just add an image
file to /boot/grub/ and then run update-grub.
