We present a GAN-based model that rotates the faces in artistic portraits to various angles. We build a dataset of artistic portraits for training our GAN-based model by applying a 3D face model to the artistic portraits. We also devise proper loss functions to preserve the styles in the artistic portraits as well as to rotate the faces in the portraits to proper angles. These approaches enable us to construct a GAN-based face rotation model. We apply this model to various artistic portraits,

Finally, we prove that our model can produce improved results compared with the existing models by evaluating the similarity and the angles of the rotated faces through evaluation schemes including FID estimation, recognition ratio estimation, pose estimation and user study.
