The cairo doc says: « Adds a cubic Bézier spline to the path from the current point to position (X3, Y3) in user-space coordinates, using (X1, Y1) and (X2, Y2) as the control points. After this call the current point will be (X3, Y3). If there is no current point before the call to Cairo.CurveTo this function will behave as if preceded by a call to Cairo.MoveTo(X1, Y1). » That means that you are drawing a curve between the current point and p3, and then p3 becomes the current point. p1 and p2 are used as control points for the bezier spline. If there is no current point (i.e. it's your first drawing instruction), then the spline starts at p1.
