Born in Louvain Ferdinand Giele was a draughtsman and engraver predominantly of landscapes and urban landscapes. From 1916 to 1919 Giele lived in England where he attended etching classes given by Sir Frank Short at the Royal College of Art. Here he developed a fine linear style. Almost all of his etchings were of Oxford. During his time in England Giele visited other cities, producing etchings of Windsor and Eton and exhibited two, of Bury-St-Edmunds and Windsor at the Royal Academy. In all he produced about 100 works. He returned to Louvain at the end of the War where he produced a set of etchings of the havoc caused by the troubles on one night in 1914; he was a founder member of La Graveur Original Belge, and a member of the Belgian Societe des aquafortistes as well as being president of the Circle Royal Artistique de Leuven.
