During the period of 1912 to 1913, he lived in Paris. After serving in the German army during World War One, where he sustained injuries, Scharff held a professorship of sculpture at the Vereinigte Staatsschulen für Freie und Angewandte Kunst in Berlin starting in 1923.
In 1928, Scharff won a bronze medal in the art competitions of the Olympic Games for his work titled "Médaille pour les Jeux Olympiques".

During this time, he produced two large equestrian statues for the portals of the Reich's Exhibition of 1937 in Düsseldorf, an event that led to him being classified as a degenerate artist.
