Unidentified Gryffindor seeker

"You barmy old codger! Give me back my Snitch!"

- The Seeker's portrait to the portrait of the old man.

This individual was a wizard who, in his lifetime, was a Seeker and Head of Gryffindor House.

A portrait of this wizard was hung in Gryffindor Tower. In 1995, he lost his Golden Snitch. Harry Potter found the Snitch in the portrait of an old man. As a reward, the Seeker gave Harry one of his Snitches back, which he had been keeping behind his frame.

Behind the scenes
