The presence of the Italian phrase 'PER L'ESTERO' and the accompanying official seal strongly indicates the photo was taken in Rhodes during the Italian occupation. The fashion, particularly the bold plaid sweater and the young man's suit style, points to the late 1930s. Given the deportation of the Rhodes Sephardic community in July 1944, the photo must pre-date that event.
