There are a few here that come close. Check them out and which is closest.

It appears to match in all aspects:

Foliage

The amount of white in the center (with some spots) and on each petal edge
The color of the stigma
The very long pedicels

You can bring up all "tango" lilies by searching under that descriptor in the lily database. This narrows the search to just those with that type of spotting:
