Margaret Hamilton as a witch
Margaret Hamilton as a witch in the 1939 film 'The Wizard of Oz'
from BBC on 1500s & 1600s Europe:  "Why was there such a proliferation of witches? Everybody assumed it was because the world had got so foul that it was coming to an end. As a result there was an outpouring of brutally misogynistic witchcraft imagery, with artists taking advantage of the invention of the printing press to disseminate material rapidly and widely."
