Herman Moerkerk lived and worked most of his life in 's-Hertogenbosch. Apart from being an artist, he was also active in cultural life there as an art critic, director and designed costumes for revues and allegorical parades. In 1928, Moerkerk moved to Haarlem for a job as publisher/illustrator at Katholieke Illustratie. During this period, he continued to provide artistic support for Bossche events and also gained national fame for his work. Moerkerk painted excellent portraits, still lifes, Brabant interiors and village and cityscapes and was a witty illustrator.
