The combination of the specific Art Deco border and the girls' clothing—particularly the wide cape collar and the hairstyle of the eldest—strongly indicates the mid-to-late 1930s. The casual outdoor setting is typical of family snapshots of this era.

Likely a garden in Rhodes or a diaspora community in the US (e.g., New York or Florida).
