This question is off-topic since it has nothing to do with gtkmm. 
Anyway, I guess you need to link with the output of gdk-pixbuf-config
--libs or something like that.

Note that gtkmm2 comes with a nice C++ wrapper, Gdk::Pixbuf.  I know you
probably heard it already, but let me tell you again:  gtkmm-1.2 is
obsolete.  You shouldn't be developing new applications with it.
