You can do it with the code you have, you just need to ensure that html and body are set to 100% height.

html, body {
    height:100%;
} 

body {
    background-color: white;
    background-image: url('http://www.canvaz.com/portrait/charcoal-1.jpg');
    background-size: auto 100%;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: left top;
}
