Uafhængighedsfest i Rebild Bakker.

In 1912 a group of Danish emigrants to the U.S.A. bought a part of the landscape at Rebild Denmark. They gave it to the Danish government and it has since been used for a yearly celebration of the 4th of July Indepencence Day. This painting - although damaged - shows the first celebration in 1912 (though the Auction House Bruun & Rasmussen claimed in 2003 that the year was 1918, but no Festival took place that year, and the date 5th of August corresponds with the year 1912, where the celebrations took place in August and not in July, and from the newspapers of 1912 it is revealed that Wennerwald was present at the celebration, and exhibited several of his paintings at the occasion).
