Professor Fytherley Undercliffe (d. 1531) was a wizard and a Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the sixteenth century.

His portrait is still at the Headmaster's office, to give adivice to the current Head.

Behind the scenesEdit

• The portrait seems to be a direct reference to an 1877 portrait of an Orthodox protodeacon holding a walking stick, by Ilya Yefimovich Repin. The same portrait appears at the Grand Staircase in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (film) when the Fat Lady is missing.
• On the DVD of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (film), Professor Undercliffe's portrait is erroneously referred to as a portrait of "Salazar Slytherin himself". Why this mistake was made is, as of yet, unclear.
• The inscription on Professor Fytherley Undercliffe's portrait frame, "Virtutes, Archangeli, Angeli, Principatus, Dominationes, Seraphin, Cherubin, Throni" are the names of the eight hosts of angels.
