Rain On Canvas

Rain fills the field surrounding your little outpost and the thick grass grows soggy beneath your cold feet. The journey has been long to arrive at such a forgotten place, nothing here but trees and rain. But you have been a strong soldier and you know that the bounty of battle will bring you and your family great riches once the thrill of war has subsided and you decide to wander your way back home. Canvas is an extremely heavy-duty plain-woven fabric used for making sails, tents, marquees, backpacks, and other items for which sturdiness is required. The word canvas is derived from the 13th century Anglo-French canevaz and the Old French canevas. Both may be derivatives of the Vulgar Latin cannapaceus for "made of hemp. Modern canvas is usually made of cotton or linen, although historically it was made from hemp. Canvas has become the most common support medium for oil painting, replacing wooden panels. One of the earliest surviving oils on canvas is a French Madonna with angels from around 1410 in the Gemäldegalerie, Berlin.
