Hillier Collection
The Hillier Collection consists of 58 images, recording the family’s long and distinguished presence in China. Walter, Harry and Guy Hillier pursued careers in three key institutions of Britain’s informal empire in China: the Consular Service, the Chinese Maritime Customs (CMCS) and the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank. See 'Andrew Hillier reflects on Three Brothers in China: Visualising Family in Empire' and A Banker and his Amanuensis. See also the Eleanor Richard Collection. HPC refs: Hi-s and Hi01.
