The subject, identified as Esther Burd (born ~1900), appears to be in her late teens, placing the photo roughly between 1916 and 1920. Her fashion—specifically the long, unbobbed hair and the white dress with a wide, dark natural-waist belt—is highly characteristic of the World War I era (mid-to-late 1910s) before 1920s styles took over. The informal snapshot style aligns with consumer camera use during this period.
