Early lifeScharf was a son of Heinrich Scharf (1872-1933), founder of the company Goldring (audio equipment) and his wife Cecilia, b. Presser (1876-1946). He graduated from Kaiser-Wilhelm-Realgymnasium in Berlin in 1920 and studied art history, classical archeology, East Asian art history and theater history in Berlin, Munich and Freiburg from 1920 to 1925. In 1925 he promoted as Dr. phil. in Freiburg with a work supervised by Hans Jantzen on history of stage design. CareerFrom 1925 to 1928, Scharf worked as research assistend at Kupferstichkabinett department of Berlin State Museums, Kaiser Friedrich Museum and Kunstbibliothek. During his time at the Kupferstichkabinett he took part in the work of the catalog of Dutch masters. From 1928 to 1932, Scharf worked as a freelance writer, among others as editor of the magazine Der Cicerone and Weltkunst. His plans to habilitate with a postdoctoral dissertation on Filippino Lippi at the University of Frankfurt failed because of his Jewish descent and the anti-semitic currents at the University of Frankfurt. He then emigrated to Great Britain in May 1933 , where he intervened with the help of Jewish aid organizations and the SPSL . In 1933/34 he gave lectures at the Courtauld Institute of the University of London. He then worked as a freelance art expert and consultant. He also contributed to a project on the Renaissance art known in the Renaissance at the Warburg Institute in London. He also worked for the National Art Collection Fund. In 1946 he was naturalized as a British citizen.

Scharf's focus was on Italian painting of the fifteenth century, Dutch and Flemish painting of the 17th century, as well asdrawings and graphics from the 15th to the 18th century.
