My guess is Germany. With a last name of Trzinski, he is probably from Prussia.

Eric,
I was intrigued by your photo. I did some searching on the internet. It looks like the answer lies in the helmet. I can't make a guess exactly where your ancestor was from because the image wasn't clear enough, but maybe your original photo is clearer. Try this link The helmet's insignia links them to a German kingdom. Good luck and hopefully you can determine the insignia.
