canvas

Japanese: キャンバス
canvas
A cloth for painting. Generally, linen is coated with glue and water, and then coated with zinc oxide dissolved in oil. The degree of paint absorption varies depending on the type of oil and how it is dissolved. There is also a distinction between coarse and fine depending on the thickness of the thread. The size is expressed by a number, and is divided into figure type (F), landscape type (P), and seascape type (M) depending on the length of the short side of the rectangle. The types currently used in Japan include No. 3 F (27.3 cm x 22.0 cm), No. 6 F (40.9 cm x 31.8 cm), No. 6 P (40.9 cm x 27.3 cm), and No. 6 M (40.9 cm x 24.2 cm). A special name is thumbhole (22.7 cm x 15.8 cm). Canvas has been widely used in Europe since the 17th century.
