Angie Fischinger, the artist's daughter, was given a special credit for helping to make the Doodle happen. In a statement, she talked about her family's experience immigrating from Germany in 1936 after the rise of Hitler.

"It means so much to me to see this celebration of my father's art," she wrote. "It’s wonderful to know that his work, which has been steadily praised since the 1920s, will continue to receive worldwide recognition."
