Whoops, saw kde in your search results and missed the other statement.
Should be plenty of icons in /usr/share/icons.
e.g. /usr/share/icons/Humanity/apps
Since you want them for the desktop, it doesn't matter whether they
are SVG or not.

find /usr/share/icons -name '*tcl*.png' -print
But I don't think you will find anything specific for Tcl or Wish.
You may know this already, but you can create a file, e.g. myapp.desktop
in your Desktop folder, and the desktop icon will show up. It will not
be executable the first time, different window managers have different
methods of fixing permissions. I think with mate, iirc, just double-click
and select "mark as trusted".
