Ulick Gamp[1], the first Minister for Magic, ran in office from 1707 to 1718[1], and as such was depicted in a portrait hung at the Prime Minister's office at 10 Downing Street and, most likely, at the office of the Minister for Magic at the Ministry of Magic. It is highly probable that a Permanent Sticking Charm was placed on it, as the Muggle Prime Minister could never get the portrait off his wall, even with a builder to help. It served as a messenger between the Minister for Magic and the Muggle Prime Minister.[2]

Physical appearance

Gamp was described as "little", "froglike" and wore purple robes and a silver curly wig.[2]
