Yes, thank you, Paul.
Surprisingly I find that pycairo is still "alive" :) . Someone maintains
the project (https://pycairo.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html ) and finally
I install it via anaconda's pypi (https://anaconda.org/RMG/pycairo ). It seems
that few people are using it...
I tried installing cairocffi but nothing worked. Then I installed pycairo
and really, it can anti-aliasing.

The effect you discuss is called aliasing. You want anti-aliasing.

I imagine that it's cairo that actually does the drawing (draws the pixels) and
pycairo is a
wrapper on top of this.
HTH,
