My guess is that the older gentleman might be Toba Rifka's brother. She was born about 1860. He looks roughly the same age. The family of V. Axelrod might be his children. The note on the top might have been written by Lazar Baer. A. Preissman is unknown.

Back of picture on left. Translation: "This is my wife's brother from Warsaw (sp??). They were in the Land of Israel for a pleasure trip for Pesach. This remembrance is for my cousin A. Preissman. V. Axelrod wife and children.
Tel Aviv, 6/28/1926" (in Yiddish)
