Google Arts and Culture app adds Art Transfer feature

Google’s Arts and Culture app, in partnership with United Kingdom’s  National Gallery and Japan’s Museum of Art, adds a new feature that transforms your photos into the style of the world’s famous artists.

Powered by Google AI, the Art Transfer applies a unique algorithm that adapts the characteristics of the chosen artist’s paintings and recreates the chosen images right in your mobile device. Among the featured artists on the Art Transfer are Frida Kahlo, Vincent Van Gogh, Edvard Munch, and Leonardo Da Vinci.

Step 4: Choose the art style to adapt to your image from the catalog of artists.

Step 5: Wait for it to load and read the fun facts about the artwork.  You can share and download it either as a photo or a GIF.
