As an Anthropology major this is a really horrible thing to say (apparently those in the colloquium feel that I am ethnocentric, anyway), but I thought the same thing!

I really don't have a problem with the artwork, though. It's well-done if not completely canon.

Snape does not have a goatee!I refuse to say so!I believe that is just a mistake on the illustrators part!

I get more of a Russian vibe off it...east european, which is close to middle east. it looks more like karkarov than snape.

Snape doesn't need a goatree to look impressive, or intimidating.

oh my gosh, ya know when I first read the books I could have sworn he was described as having a goatee at one point. Or maybe I just imagined him with one because of the pictures. Confused
