Raphael Emanuel Belilios: A Prominent Legal Figure in Early Twentieth-Century Hong Kong This photograph features Raphael Emanuel Belilios (1881-1922), a renowned legal barrister with significant business interests in Hong Kong during the early 20th century. Belilios, born in 1881, is depicted in this Vanity Fair image, taken likely in the 1910s or 1920s. He is seen holding a cigarette in his hand, exuding an air of confidence and sophistication. Belilios' legal career began in Bombay, India, where he was called to the Bar in 1906. However, his business interests led him to Hong Kong, where he became a prominent figure in the legal and commercial communities. He was a founding member of the Hong Kong Bar Association and served as its Vice-President from 1912 to 1913. Belilios' business ventures included various companies in the shipping, insurance, and real estate industries. He was also the founder and editor of the Hong Kong Law Journal, which provided valuable insights and analysis on legal matters in the region. Despite his professional accomplishments, Belilios was known for his philanthropic efforts. He was a generous donor to various charities and educational institutions, including the University of Hong Kong and the Christian and Missionary Alliance. This photograph of Raphael Emanuel Belilios offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable individual who left an indelible mark on the legal and business landscape of early twentieth-century Hong Kong. His legacy continues to inspire and influence the legal and business communities in Hong Kong and beyond.
