{{Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Beginner Spoiler}}
 
Characters in the paintings can move from one frame to another adjacent one; at several points, a character is seen flitting from painting to painting to spread news, and in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Prisoner_of_AzkabanPrisoner of Azkaban|''Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban'']], one character, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Sir_CadoganSir Cadogan|Sir Cadogan]], travels from painting to painting to show [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Harry_PotterHarry Potter|Harry]] and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ron_WeasleyRon Weasley|Ron]] the way to class.
 
The characters in several paintings are mentioned by name and are characters in their own right: [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/The_Fat_LadyThe Fat Lady|The Fat Lady]] who guards the Gryffindor common room, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Phineas_Nigellus_BlackPhineas Nigellus Black|Phineas Nigellus]], and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Sir_CadoganSir Cadogan|Sir Cadogan]], are the most prominent among othersthem.
 
It is also apparently possible for the subject of a painting to move to any other painting in which he or she is portrayed. While it is certain that the portraits that hang in the Headmasters' study at Hogwarts have this ability, we never learn whether other portraits are able to do this. In some cases, notably that of Phineas Nigellus, there is one inhabitant for, forin this examplecase, two pictures. This means that there is always one 'empty' painting. While it might seem odd to Muggles to have a painting without an inhabitant, this is apparently fairly common in the Wizarding world; Ron remarks, when Harry comments about his Famous Wizards card being blank, "Well, you can't expect him to hang about all day."
 
The two paintings can be at any distance apart, but the inhabitants will still be able to switch. In several cases, people depicted in paintings in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Albus Dumbledore|Professor Dumbledore]]'s office travel instantaneously to their images in London. This switching can be useful to carry messages between the locations of the different pictures, or report on what is going on in one of the other places.
 
Apparently, the inhabitants can travel from portrait to portrait within a given Wizard building; we see this both at Hogwarts and at [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries|St. Mungo's]]. Whether portraits can, in general, travel to other portraits of the same subject (e.g. Dilys Derwent portrayed in a painting at St. Mungo's travel to her portrait at the Ministry) is questionable. The only paintingsNote that we have seen which have this ability are the ones located in the Headmaster's office. Even the portraits in the Headmaster's office cannot travel from frame to frame once they have left Hogwarts; in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Deathly Hallows|''Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows'']], the portrait of Phineas Nigellus does say that the portrait of Dumbledore cannot travel to the canvas that Phineas is using to visit them. We are led to believe that the portrait of Phineas Nigellus can travel from portrait to portrait within his erstwhile home at [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Grimmauld Place|Grimmauld Place]], but we never actually see him do so.
 
== Analysis ==
 
The limitation on where portraits can travel is clearly necessary, as without these limits, any subject of any painting could visit any other painting. This would provide, in this story, something of a ''deus ex machina'', as Harry would be able to summon and interrogate a portrait of Dumbledore no matter where he was. Dumbledore's absence is vital for Harry's maturation.
 
One must wonder about the case of a subject who has been painted multiple times, such as, we presume, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Albus Dumbledore|Albus Dumbledore]]. If there are twenty portraits of him scattered about the Wizarding world, does he appear in each of them in turn? Or are there multiple Dumbledores spread out among the portraits? And would it be possible for them to collide, such that you would have, perhaps, two or three different-aged Dumbledores appear in your portrait occasionally?
