Isn't there an example in the distribution? But you could try
searching for examples for the plain C interface (I know there are a
couple of those around) then convert it to the C++ interface. Both
Hardware Monitor and Monster Masher use Gnome::Canvas if you need
source code to look at

BTW: As far as I understand things, the canvas is going to be
deprecated soon in favour of a new one in GTK+ based on Cairo. I don't
know how far they are with the plans at the moment, though.
