You need to change the content pane to get a background for your Frame.

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

    JFrame frame = new JFrame("Test");

    frame.setContentPane(new JPanel() {

    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    frame.setSize(300, 300);
    frame.setVisible(true);
}
