The last compose (date 2021-10-14) already ships centos-logos-90.4. However, the /usr/share/backgrounds/ directory is still empty. Probably something in the package spec file?
Best regards.

CentOS Stream 9 Workstation Without Background
Add screenshot for visual reference.
I believe the problem is that the backgrounds are part of the centos-backgrounds subpackage. That is built [0], but it is not being installed by default when selecting "server with GUI" or "workstation" in the installer. In fact I don't even see it in the repos, meaning it's not being included in the compose.

We're also missing symlinks for default backgrounds so desktops will pick it up.
For example, the following file paths should be symlinks pointing to the correct files:
/usr/share/backgrounds/default.png
/usr/share/backgrounds/default.xml
/usr/share/backgrounds/images
/usr/share/backgrounds/images/default-16_10.png
/usr/share/backgrounds/images/default-16_9.png
/usr/share/backgrounds/images/default-5_4.png
/usr/share/backgrounds/images/default.png
