The fashion cues are the strongest indicators. The specific combination of a patterned knit sweater vest under a wide-lapel suit jacket is highly characteristic of the late 1930s to mid-1940s. The grooming and studio backdrop support this era.

Likely a studio portrait, possibly in Rhodes or an early immigrant community in the US (NYC/Miami).
