I can confirm the bug.

To reproduce just call:
  display /usr/share/backgrounds/Ubuntu-Simple_Human_1600x1200.png
Or if you have graphicsmagick instead of imagemagck installed:
  gm display /usr/share/backgrounds/Ubuntu-Simple_Human_1600x1200.png

Using "-font fixed" is really an ugly workaround. Normally using display should just work.
