The text provides a definitive biography: born 1907, left Rhodes in 1930, left Palestine in 1937, then moved to the Belgian Congo. The subject appears to be in his mid-30s, placing the photo shortly after his arrival in Elisabethville. The phrasing 'notre Colonie' suggests the book was published before Congolese independence in 1960.
