Change the desktop picture (background) on your Mac - Apple Support
Customize the desktop picture on your Mac - Apple Support
If your issue continues with no resolve—Boot into Recovery (Command R) and from the dropdown menu: Utilities> Disk Utility> run the First Aid on your Macintosh HD. If errors are found and repaired, run again until no errors reported. Recovery: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204904
To trouble shoot further you can:
Try a SafeBoot https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262
Takes noticeable longer to get to the login screen, does a 5-15 minute disk repair before it fully boots up, and certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, including dynamic loader cache, etc. Go ahead and log-in.
This test will tell you if third party interference; extensions etc are not loaded in safe boot mode.
Test issue in another user (or guest user) account https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204443
This will tell you if it a universal issue or isolated to your user/admin account.
If you still no resolve you can verify your macOS is up to date, reinstall the macOS from Recovery or try simply the Combo update: Download macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 Combo Update - Apple Support
