qt: how to implement canvas rendering

I want to use Qt to write a simple c++ 2d game (kinda-pacman). I've got a model of the app already (pure C++), now I need to implement the rendering part and I'm trying to find the best Qt classes to paint 2D graphics on a canvas. I'm trying to find "Qt canvas" or similar stuff on google but I get stuck with things around QML. I want just a simple canvas (bitmap or whatever) and pure C++. Can someone point me on what to use?

In the days of Qt 3, there used to be a QCanvas, but Qt 4 replaced that with the QGraphics Framework, as described here

For games I'd suggest creating a QGraphicsView with a QGraphicsScene and then adding QGraphicsItems or QGraphicsObjects if you want signals and slots.

There's also more info on creating a Pacman-like game here
