Provided is a lighting system that illuminates an object with illumination light. The lighting system includes a radio frequency (RF) tag and a lighting device. The RF tag is directly attached to the object or assigned to the object and stores attribute information on the object. The lighting device illuminates the object with the illumination light and includes a light source, a communication circuit, and a controller. The light source emits the illumination light. The communication circuit includes an RF tag reader that wirelessly reads the attribute information stored in the RF tag. The controller controls at least one of dimming, a color, and an emission time of the illumination light emitted by the light source, based on the attribute information read from the RF tag by the RF tag reader.
