Does Gtk have a canas-like widget?

["Christian Convey" <christian.convey@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm coming from the Qt world, which has a Canvas / CanvasItem pair of classes.  These let you draw arbitrary objects in a rectangular, and move them, do hit tests, etc. pretty easily.

How do you guys get similar effects using Gtk?  (Specifically I'm using pygtk.  I'm using Python 
2.4 and I think Gtk 2.8(?))

Thanks very much,
Christian
