The strongest dating markers are the women's fashion, specifically the fur stole and waved hair, which peaked in the late 1930s. The men's suit silhouettes and the presence of a traditional bearded elder suggest a multi-generational Sephardic family portrait from the years immediately preceding World War II.

Likely Rhodes or New York City (garden/park setting)

Cultural context: The mix of a traditional bearded patriarch with younger family members in contemporary Western suits and fur stoles is characteristic of Sephardic families in Rhodes or NYC during the late interwar period. Fashion suggests late 1930s, adjusted slightly for potential lag in the Mediterranean context.
