After the birth of his children, Dagdangjin Amgalan, (1933-2009), created the "My Motherland in the Morning" (mong. "Өлгий нутгийн минь өглөө"), for which he won the State Prize in 1969. Part of this series is the linoleum engraving "Good morning Mother!". The engraving in the collection of the Ferenc Hopp Museum was made using black on a white background, but in most versions red was always used to color the little girl's dress.
