Lodewijk Toeput, or il Pozzoserrato was a Mannerist landscape painter active in Italy.
This painter who was born in Antwerp made his carreer in Italy from 1580 on. He worked mainly in Treviso and was famous for his landscapes and market scenes.
According to Karel van Mander, who listed him as one of two painters from Northern Europe whom he met in Venice, he was a good poet (rederijker) as well as a painter; van Mander thought he came from Mechelen.Van Mander listed him with Dirck de Vries, a painter of kitchen pieces and fruit markets from Friesland. According to the RKD he was from Antwerp and spent most of his life in Treviso, Italy, where he died.
