From the years 1920, he collaborated with several emblematic illustrated newspapers such as Le Journal, Le Rire, Ric et Rac or Le Hérisson. His style is distinguished by a wry humor, often bawdy, always incisive. He unsparingly sketches the failings of human nature with a biting irony. Beyond his press cartoons, van Elsen also distinguished himself in publishing, putting his expressive style to the service of major literary works such as Zola's L'Assommoir, Bernanos' Un crime or Murger's Scènes de la vie de Bohème. His illustrations, often done in ink wash, reveal a deep empathy for misery and daily struggles, translated into poignant and lively genre scenes. In 1929, he exhibited several striking paintings at the Salon des Humoristes: "Le Travail", "Elle est bien mince" and "Gueux", all lucid, sometimes bitter, always human looks at his time. In 1930 he exhibited three other works there, in 1931 two drawings and in 1944, 6 drawings including "l'heureux clochard" and "t'as fait du progrès". Reference Bénézit Volume 5 page 104
