Lilium Martagon, from Les Liliacées, 1806, is a botanical illustration created by the renowned Belgian painter and botanist Pierre-Joseph Redouté. Known for his exquisite and scientifically accurate depictions of flowers, Redouté's work has been celebrated for its artistic beauty and contribution to botanical science. Les Liliacées, a monumental collection of illustrations, was published between 1802 and 1816 and comprises over 500 plates, each dedicated to various species within the Liliaceae family. The Lilium Martagon, commonly known as the Turk's cap lily, is one of the notable species featured in this series.

Redouté's illustration of Lilium Martagon exemplifies his meticulous attention to detail and mastery of watercolor techniques. The Turk's cap lily is depicted with its characteristic recurved petals, which are often pink to purplish in color, adorned with dark spots. The plant's tall, slender stem and whorled leaves are also rendered with precision, capturing the essence of the species' natural elegance. This particular illustration not only serves as a visual delight but also as an important scientific record, aiding botanists and horticulturists in the study and identification of the species.

Pierre-Joseph Redouté, often referred to as the "Raphael of flowers," worked under the patronage of Empress Joséphine Bonaparte, who was an avid collector of botanical art and a keen gardener. His work in Les Liliacées is considered a pinnacle of botanical illustration, combining artistic skill with scientific accuracy. The collection has been highly influential, setting a standard for botanical art and continuing to inspire artists and botanists alike.

The Lilium Martagon plate, like others in Les Liliacées, reflects the Enlightenment era's fascination with nature and the pursuit of knowledge. Redouté's ability to blend art and science has left a lasting legacy, making his work a cherished part of both botanical literature and art history.
