The map has a transparent background where the axes are. Since the axes are black by default and your background is also black, you can't see them. But they are there :).
You can specify the background using matplotlib.
import geopandas
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
map_df = geopandas.read_file(geopandas.datasets.get_path('naturalearth_lowres'))
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax = map_df.plot(ax=ax)
fig.patch.set_facecolor('pink')
