How about this?

\setupexternalfigures[location={local,global,default}]

\setupcolors[state=start]

\definecolor[partwhite][s=1,t=.8,a=1]

\defineoverlay[partimage][\overlayfigure{mill}]

\defineframedtext
   [partframed]
   [width=\textwidth,
    height=\textheight,
    rulethickness=5pt,
    background={partimage,color},
    backgroundcolor=partwhite,
    top=\vfill,
    bottom=\vfill\vfill]

\setuphead
   [part]
   [before=\startpartframed,
    after=\stoppartframed,
    align=middle,
    footer=high,
    header=high,
    placehead=yes]

\starttext
\part{This is part one}
\stoptext
