"Alstroemeria Ligtu," commonly known as the "Inca Lily," is a botanical illustration by the renowned Belgian artist Pierre-Joseph Redouté, who is celebrated for his watercolors of flowers. Redouté's work is characterized by its precision and attention to detail, which has earned him the title of "the Raphael of flowers." The illustration of the Alstroemeria Ligtu is no exception, showcasing the intricate beauty of this South American flower, which is native to Chile.

Pierre-Joseph Redouté (1759–1840) was an official court artist of Queen Marie Antoinette and continued to work in the courts of both Napoleon and Josephine. His career spanned a period of great advancement in botanical exploration and classification, and his illustrations were highly regarded for both their artistic quality and scientific accuracy. "Alstroemeria Ligtu" is part of a larger body of work that includes thousands of botanical illustrations, many of which were published in large-format books that are still referenced by botanists and horticulturists today.

The Alstroemeria genus was named after the Swedish baron Clas Alströmer by his close friend Carl Linnaeus. The ligtu species, with its strikingly colorful petals, is often admired for its exotic appearance and is a popular subject in horticulture and art. Redouté's depiction of the "Inca Lily" captures the unique form and vibrant colors of the flower, which typically features a mix of pink, orange, and yellow hues.

Redouté's illustration of "Alstroemeria Ligtu" is a testament to his skill in capturing the delicate structures of plants and their aesthetic appeal. His work continues to be celebrated for its contribution to the fields of art and botany, and original prints of his illustrations are highly sought after by collectors. The image of the "Inca Lily" by Redouté not only serves as a historical record of botanical art but also as a source of inspiration for those who appreciate the natural beauty of flowers.
