==Early life==
Giese grew up in [[Bautzen]]. There he attended the high school. He then studied at the [[TU Dresden|Dresden Polytechnic]] and at the [[Dresden Art Academy]] , including with [[Georg Hermann Nicolai|Hermann Nicolai]] . From 1855 to 1858 Giese was on a study grant in Italy for study purposes.<ref></ref>

==Work==
After the trip to Italy, he returned to Dresden and ran a joint architectural office with [[Bernhard Schreiber]] . In 1866, Giese accepted a professorship in architecture at the [[Düsseldorf Art Academy]] . He performed this function part-time. His wife Gertrud, née Barteldes, gave birth to his first son Max Eduard , who became a landscape painter, in 1867, and Friedrich, who joined his later Dresden office as an architect in 1871.<ref name="a">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref> Because he did not offer the options in [[Dusseldorf]], which he had hoped, he returned in 1872 to Dresden and initially teamed up with the architect Frederick O. Hartmann. In August 1873, he caught up for a short time [[Cornelius Gurlitt (art historian)|Cornelius Gurlitt]] in his Dresden office. In 1874 he separated from Hartmann and worked with Paul Weidner (1843–1899) for the next 17 years (''Giese & Weidner'').<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref>

In 1878 Giese was appointed full professor of architecture at the Dresden Polytechnic (since 1890: [[Dresden University of Technology]]); he held this teaching position until the fall of 1900. The joint architectural office with Weidner existed in parallel until 1891, from then on Giese worked with his son Friedrich (''Giese & Sohn'') . Evidence of the professional reputation that Ernst Giese earned as an architect and university professor is also his appointment in 1892 as a full member of the [[Prussian Academy of the Arts]] . After retiring in 1900, Giese moved to (Berlin) [[Charlottenburg]], where he died in 1903.<ref name="a"/>
