canvas
Sturdy tent material
Canvas is a heavy, tightly woven fabric used for sails, tents, and bags—anything requiring durability.
Because painters stretch canvas over frames to paint on, canvas extends to paintings themselves: The museum acquired three canvases by Monet.
A boxing or wrestling ring has a canvas floor.
To canvas (also spelled canvass) is to solicit opinions or votes door-to-door.
