For example, I'm trying to restore photos of my great grandfather. And I'm having difficulty expanding the rectangle to the rest of the picture.

I don't think it's possible using GFPGAN. This algorythm is trained only to enhance and colorize faces. You'd need to use some separate tool to colorize the rest of the photo.

Maybe, you can use GFGAN with some colorization libs. https://github.com/TencentARC/GFPGAN/issues/201#issuecomment-1703679814
