With its architectural concept, its monumental statuesque ornamentation and unique sculptures it is considered as the most important medieval Turkish work in world history of art. In his book Prof. Dogan Kuban aims both at documenting the Divrigi Complex with photographs and other visual material with a view to gather public opinion support for the protection of the complex, which is deteriorating day by day, and at making its architect and sculptor Hürremsah known to the world.
