Until 1914 he studied at the Academies of Fine Arts in Rotterdam, Brussels, Berlin and London. He meets his wife, the painter Karin and together will travel to many countries. First of all close to expressionism, he did not produce his first abstract work until 1948. From his three studios in Los Angeles, Venice and Paris, he led a life of incessant travel and friendly encounters with the celebrities of his time: Chaplin, Stravinsky, Brecht, Dali, Picasso... His work is recognized and bought by the greatest museums in the world. In the 1950s, he practiced large-format collage in the same spirit as Jasper Johns or Rauschenberg, and applied himself to “revealing the secret life” of the materials he used. From 1947, Karin and Ernst van Leyden reconstituted a studio in Paris. Finally, they acquired a ruin called "L'enclos du Lieutel" near Montfort-l'Amaury to transform it into a residence-workshop. After 1955, the couple continued their stays abroad (Venice and New York), but a divergence of sensibilities was revealed: Karin enjoyed working in Rome, Ernst preferring his "enclosure" at Montfort-l'Amaury where he will settle definitively in 1962.Having become famous, his works appear in many international museums: Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, Tate Gallery, London, Guggenheim, Whitney Museum (New York), Museum of Modern Art, Paris, Boyemans Museum, Rotterdam, Santa Barbara Museum and the museums in Budapest, Cairo, Lisbon, Rome...
