message: Hello! The article says not what is three-quarter. Profile is a turn of 90 degrees, full face ist no turn (0 degrees), half-turn i guess it is a turn of 45 degrees, but what is three-quarter? In a half turn i see three quarters of face, so what ist the difference half-turn vs. three-quarter? --Diwas (talk) 23:00, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: They are the same, in my view though three-quarter face is the more technical term. Johnbod (talk) 19:46, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Indeed! That could usefully go in. I've never heard "half-turn/ed" used in any technical sense, like 3/4. Have you? Johnbod (talk) 22:56, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: "Full face", "profile" and "three-quarter" views are usual; "half-turn" is not (and would indicate "profile". "Three quarter" is not "three-quarter turn", but "three-quarter view", i.e. one quarter not visible. Ty 23:15, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: What I thought - I can see someone might call a 3/4 view "half-turned" in normal speech, but I'll edit to remove it from the article. Johnbod (talk) 23:57, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The three-quarter view involves a degree of turn which is midway between the profile view and the full-face view. Full-face actually involves no turn at all. I'm just restating what everybody has already said. Bus stop (talk) 00:09, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

message: I've recently been to an exhibition of Japanese portraits (mostly) and they seem stylised, but according to the guide you can actually tell which e.g. kabuki artist is depicted from the shape of the face and eyes and such. There is quite a large volume of Japanese ukiyo-e portraits, but none of them is displayed in the gallery.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.139.81.0 (talk) 19:52, 20 June 2014 (UTC)
