Lerche was born to the father of the same name (1809-1894; the grandfather (1766-1820) also had the same name), and his wife Jane Matthew, née Døderlein (1804-1860). Half-sister Valborg Lerche (1873-1931), social worker and Norway's first female theologian , came from her marriage to Kristine (Christine) Marie Rosenvinge (1838–1926), daughter of the meteorologist Abraham Bredahl Rosenvinge (1810–1884) .

In 1855 he finished his school education and then went to Düsseldorf in 1856 , where he was trained in the painting style prevailing there at the Düsseldorf School of Painting, among others with Benjamin Vautier . He first painted architectural pieces and therefore went to Venice, from there to the Rhine, where he painted churches by name, and finally to the north at home, where Trondheim and Roskilde offered him models.

The grave of the painter Vincent Stoltenberg Lerche is located in what is now the northern part of the Golzheimer Friedhof in Düsseldorf.

He also made a name for himself as a cartoonist and soon populated his monastery courtyards, sacristies and church corridors with cheerful scenes from the world of Catholic priests and monks. Later he also painted interiors with figures from the 18th century. His main works are:

  • The interior of the Lamberti Church in Düsseldorf (1862)
  • Monastery library (1872)
  • The tenth day in the monastery (1873)
  • An inn in Cologne during the French occupation (1880)
  • The church plan (1886)
  • Seaman's Tales (1886)

He was also active as a writer with the publications Reiseskizzen (1872 and 1874), Small Pictures for Big Children , two booklets Nursery Rhymes and Folk Tones in Arabesques (1876 and 1879). He also worked as an illustrator for numerous articles for German, Swedish and Norwegian magazines. Lerches grave is on field VII in the northern part of the Golzheim cemetery .

In 1866 he married Marie Rittershausen (1842–1926), the daughter of Carl Heinrich Alfred Rittershausen . Family research shows the following children from their first marriage: Margrethe Sophie Lerche (1869–1938), Gunhild Lerche (1870–1893) and the physician Axel Wilhelm Bertold Stoltenberg Lerche (1872–1905) The entry on Hans Stoltenberg Lerche in the store norske leksikon is it can be inferred that he was the firstborn child in the family.
