In implementations of correcting dust and scratch artifacts in digital images, an artifact correction system receives a digital image that depicts a scene and includes a dust or scratch artifact. The artifact correction system generates, with a generator of a generative adversarial neural network (GAN), a feature map from the digital image that represents features of the dust or scratch artifact and features of the scene. A training system can train the generator adversarially to reduce visibility of dust and scratch artifacts in digital images against a discriminator, and train the discriminator to distinguish between reconstructed digital images generated by the generator and real-world digital images. The artifact correction system generates, from the feature map and with the generator, a reconstructed digital image that depicts the scene of the digital image and reduces visibility of the dust or scratch artifact of the digital image.
