Scharf-Gerstenberg Collection

Its collection of paintings, graphics and sculptures, spanning the period from French Romanticism to Surrealism, is currently housed in former rooms of the Egyptian Museum in Charlottenburg on a ten-year loan.

The Scharf-Gerstenberg Collection is located on Schloßstraße, opposite the present-day Berggruen Museum (in the West Stüler Building).

They originate from designs by the Prussian king Frederick William IV, implemented by the architect Friedrich August Stüler from 1851 to 1859.

[6] The works inherited by Dieter Scharf from his grandfather's collection include graphics by Goya,[3] Hugo, Klinger, Manet, Meryon[3] and Piranesi.

Other artists in the collection include Baumeister, Bellmer, Brauner, Éluard, Ensor, Giacometti, Grosz, Janssen, Klee, Léger, Miró, Munch, Oelze, Picabia, Picasso, Schwitters, Seurat, Tobey, and Wols.
