Hi! Your awesome version is very old, the series 3.x based on lua, 2.x "based" on libconfuse. As I remember you should set background image with an external program (I'm using feh [1]) which starts from ~/.xinitrc (or ~/.xprofile, I don't know how do you start awesome).
If you want more configurable awesome and you don't afraid from learning of lua programming language (and you've some free time), I think, you should try the latest awesome.
