The selected answer is correct, and for changing the background in C# codes:

ImageBrush brush1 = new ImageBrush();
BitmapImage image = new BitmapImage(new Uri(IMAGE_URL_HERE));
brush1.ImageSource = image;
button1.Background = brush1;

Both are correct.

Set the button's background explicitly using an ImageBrush:

<Button Content="Hello">
    <Button.Background>
        <ImageBrush ImageSource="http://example.com/foo.jpg" />
    </Button.Background>
</Button>
