We propose an all optical way to measure the recently proposed "photovoltaic Hall effect", i.e., a DC Hall effect induced by a circularly polarized light in the absence of static magnetic fields. For this, we have calculated the Faraday rotation angle induced by the photovoltaic Hall effect with the Kubo formula extended for photovoltaic optical response in the presence of strong AC electric fields treated with the Floquet formalism. We also point out the possibility of observing the effect in three-dimensional graphite, and more generally in multi-band systems such as materials described by the dp-model.
