The man's formal attire and grooming (suit, tie, neat haircut), combined with the sepia-toned, plain-background portrait style, are highly indicative of the late 1930s to mid-1940s. The handwritten inscription below the image is also consistent with personal or identification photographs from this era. There are no conflicting cues.
