Karl Friedrich Schinkel referred to his designs for a palace on the Acropolis and Orianda Castle as a 'beautiful dream.' Created in 1834 and 1838, these projects represent Schinkel’s architectural ideals through stunning drawings and watercolours, serving as a testament to his vision. The neo-Classical style and presentation quality are exceptional, reflecting Schinkel's high regard for these unrealized designs, which he published as coloured lithographs in Werke der höheren Baukunst für die Ausführung erfunden (Potsdam 1840-1842). The large-format lithographs include spectacular representations of the Pliny villas, Tusculum and Laurentinum, showcasing Schinkel’s skill in articulating his architectural concepts. He aimed for archaeological accuracy in the reconstructions while exploring architecture's potential beyond mere utility. In the Acropolis project, he focused on how the new structure would relate to the Propylaea and Parthenon. The Orianda design features a glazed observation pavilion resembling a temple, epitomizing architecture's self-perception. Klaus Jan Philipp, who studied art history and archaeology, has contributed significantly to the field, including organizing exhibitions and presenting research on neo-Classical architecture. He is currently a professor of architectural history at Stuttgart University.
