Portrait bust to the left of Diederik Sonoy (1529-1597). Copper engraving, maker unknown. Made c. 1680. Illustration in: P. Bor. "Origin, beginning and continuation of the Dutch wars", 4 volumes, Amsterdam 1679-1684. Sonoy was a Cleves nobleman and one of the signers of the petition to Margaret of Parma in 1566. In 1572 he became mayor of Enkhuizen and William of Orange appointed him governor of the Noorderkwartier (West Friesland) in the same year. Under his leadership, the Beggars in 1573 flooded Alkmaar during the Spanish siege, which saved the city. He waged a reign of terror against the Catholics. Later he resisted the States of Holland and Prince Maurits and lost his power. Source: National Office for Art Historical Documentation, 2014.

Portretbuste naar links van Diederik Sonoy (1529-1597). Kopergravure, maker onbekend. Vervaardigd ca. 1680. Illustratie in: P. Bor. ,,Oorsprongk, begin en vervolgh der Nederlandsche oorlogen'', 4 delen, Amsterdam 1679-1684.
Sonoy was een Kleefs edelman en een van de ondertekenaars van het smeekschrift aan Margaretha van Parma in 1566. In 1572 werd hij burgemeester van Enkhuizen en Willem van Oranje benoemde hem in hetzelfde jaar tot gouverneur van het Noorderkwartier (West-Friesland). Onder zijn leiding zetten de geuzen in 1573 Alkmaar onder water tijdens de Spaanse belegering, waardoor de stad gered werd. Hij voerde een schrikbewind jegens de katholieken. Later kwam hij in verzet tegen de Staten van Holland en prins Maurits en raakte hij zijn macht kwijt.
