说斯内普在校长室不会有画像，原因是他在最后逃跑了。这一部分是通过引用罗琳官方的发言对这些传言和误解的澄清。

    关于校长室画像

    关于斯内普的画像是否像历任校长的一样被挂在了校长室，作者J.K.罗琳已经回答了，是有的。哈利波特确保了斯内普的画像在战后被挂进了校长室，和历任校长的画像在一起。所以这个问题的争议已经没有了。

    罗琳的原话如下：

    【1】神仙日子

    Laura Trego: Was the absence of snapes portrait in the head the last scene innocent or deliberate

    J.K. Rowling: It was deliberate. Snape had effectivelyabandonedhis post before dying, so he had not merited inclusion in these august circles.

    J.K. Rowling:However, I like to think that Harry would be instrumental in ensuring that Snape’s portrait would appear there in due course.

    【2】

    Q: Is Severus Snape's portrait in the headmaster's office

    JKR: Some have been asking why hasn't the portrait appeared immediately. It doesn't. The reason is that the perception in the castle itself and everyone who was in the castle, because Snape kept his secret so well was that heabandonedhis post. So all the portraits you see in the headdmasters and mistresses who died, it's like British royals. You only get good press if you die in office.Abdicationis not acceptable, particularly if you . I'ughter] I digress. I know, because I thought this one through, because it was very important to ve insisted that Snape's portrait was on that wall, right beside Duuse.] As for whether Harry would go back to talk to him, I think, I've done.

    【3】

    I found this on another thread about comments JKR made the other day in Toronto, andit does have something to do with Snape's portrait.:) A girl who won tickets from Raincoast Books wrote this on their blog about one of the questions:军少，厚爱晚成

    Does Albus Severus Potter ever have any contact with the portraits of his name sake

    The first thing she (JKR) said about this was “What a dreadful name!” (and) she said it must have been a burden having that name and having to live up to those wizards. But she did sayyes, Alwould definitely have talked to the portraits of Dumbledore and Snape when he would get in trouble and would have to go to the headmaster’s office.

    关于校长一职的去离

    从上面第一和二部分的罗琳的引言里看，罗琳在访谈中所用的词是“abandoned”（放弃）和 “Abdication” （辞职）。所以当时对于霍格沃茨校长一职来说，斯内普并不属于逃跑，而是他自己为了在关键时刻不与霍格沃茨教师发生不必要冲突而放弃了这个职位（或者说相当于辞职了，见《哈利波特与死亡圣器》第三十章）。

    7家庭背景

    父亲

    Tobias Snape，人民文学出版社译为“托比亚·斯内普”。一名麻瓜，从书中看来与西弗勒斯·斯内普长相相似。酗酒，脾气暴躁，有家庭暴力倾向。（参见《哈利·波特与凤凰社》）还有种说法为，当斯内普3岁时，他破产了（非原文）。

    母亲

    Eileen Prince，人民文学出版社译为“艾琳·普林斯”。一名女巫，霍格沃茨魔法学校毕业，所属学院斯莱特林学院。普林斯家族纯血统后裔。在第六部首次登场，由赫敏提到。斯内普家族都是斯莱特林学院出身，（相信他口中提到的家族应该是他母亲的家族）由此可以得出斯内普的母亲是斯莱特林学院的学生！

    她乖戾，闷闷不乐，相貌平平；在校曾任高布石队队长。赫敏对“混血王子”有所不满，曾在图书馆的一份旧预言家报中查到了艾琳·普林斯这个名字对哈利证实，以为艾琳·普林斯就是“混血王子”，但被哈利以“你见过哪个女生会把自己叫‘王子’”的理由驳回。事实上，在英语中Prince有王子的意思，斯内普一定为这“半个普林斯”也就是混血王子而感到骄傲。（参见《哈利·波特与“混血王子”》）

    婚姻状况

    未婚，一直深爱莉莉·伊万斯(Lily Evans)，即詹姆·波特之妻，哈利·波特之母。
