Color correct image based on known background color
#3
Usually this is a problem of color temperature.

So you can set a Sample point on a pixel of the color and use the  Intended temperature slider in Colors ➤ Color temperature to get as close as possible to the required color.

Usually to try to find something  neutral gray/white in the picture and make it as close as possible to gray (R=G=B). For instance in the image below, the background color is a bit blue (so the image is a bit "cold").


   

You will note that points 1 & 2 are good candidates because their Red/Blue values are about symmetrical around the Green. Point 3 is a lousy pick for this purpose.

Then you tweak the intended color to get as close as possible to R=G=B in the sample points:

   

If you have a neutral gray/white color in your picture you can use this script.

Otherwise if you know the color temperature of the source you can use both sliders in Colors ➤ Color temperature.
