"Opdracht in De Boodts herbarium van 1640" is a dedication page from a 1640 herbarium by Dutch botanist Olivarius Vredius (1596–1652). This page features a dedication to the herbarium's patron in the form of a small text, with the artist's signature below it. Vredius's dedication reflects the custom of the time to acknowledge patrons who financially and intellectually supported scholarship. This printed page is a good example of the dedication page genre popular in books from the 17th century.
