The Automaton from The Invention of Hugo Cabret


The book The Invention of Hugo Cabret centered around a fictional automaton restored by the character Hugo Cabret. It was a draughtsman automaton capable of recreating a drawing from a film by Georges Melies.
The key pictured to the right wound the automaton. When wound, he drew this famous picture of a rocket landing on the moon.

All images were taken from the book The Invention of Hugo Cabret.
