This 450-year-old clockwork monk is fully operational. By Lauren Davis This stern mechanical monk is a marvel of early automation; likely built in the 1560s, it is a completely self-acting device, with all of its clockwork mechanisms hidden beneath its cloak. Today, the clockwork monk can still scoot about, moving its mouth and arms in silent prayer. The origin of this automatic wonder is a bit of a mystery, although its creation is often attributed to Juanelo Turriano, a 16th-century Spanish clockmaker who served Holy Roman Emperor Charles V.
Elizabeth King, an artist and arts professor who herself specializes in movable figurative sculpture, details the mystery of the mechanical monk and the attempts to pin down its creator in her essay, "Clockwork Prayer: A Sixteenth-Century Mechanical Monk. " The lore surrounding the monk is that King Philip II, son of Charles V, commissioned Turriano to create the penitent automaton after Philip’s son had recovered from a deathly illness.
