David Shrigley's 2008 monotype "Untitled (Tears for Sale)" is created on Steinbach 250g paper using the monotype printing technique.

Monotype printing creates unique, painterly qualities distinct from other printmaking methods. The work exemplifies Shrigley's characteristic engagement with raw emotion and unconventional subject matter.
