Severus Snape was hailed a hero after his loyalty to Dumbledore was revealed. Because he deserted his post by “doing a bunk”, he was not approved by past headmasters for a portrait. Rowling deliberately did not include Snape’s portrait in the epilogue, but reveals that Harry would have fought for Snape’s portrait to be made. Although he didn’t much like Snape, Harry can still appreciate Snape’s efforts and respect him for it. To that end, Harry would have used his “saving-people thing” to have the portrait made and hung right next to Dumbledore’s. Whether or not Harry would have talked to the portrait is a separate matter. Snape’s successor is Minerva McGonagall.
