(Source: I've coded for wxWidgets, GTK+ 2.x, GTK 3.x, Qt 4, and Qt 5... though mainly the Python bindings. I can, however, attest that the Python bindings to wxWidgets are about as faithful to the underlying C++ API as the Qt bindings are, and both wxWidgets and wxPython have an ugly Win32-esque quality to their APIs... mainly the need to pass around raw numeric IDs.)
On Linux, the backend in use is called wxGTK.

(Seriously. Back in the GTK+ 2.x days, my theme of choice was a hacked theme called "Clearlooks-Compact" and I did and still do run a customized icon theme which does stuff like overriding the panel icons for applications.)
IMHO, system-wide theming is one of the XDG desktop ecosystem's greatest strengths and, if an application is insufficiently themable, I look for a replacement. (Yes, I also do things like using Userstyles to re-theme web apps I'm forced to use.)
