A display device is capable of switching between a first display mode and a second display mode, the second display mode having a larger display area than the first display mode. When the display mode is the first display mode in the first period, the display mode is the second display mode in the subsequent second period, and the display mode is the first display mode in the subsequent third period, an image generator (CCP_) makes an image to be displayed at a start point of the third period to be different from an image displayed at an end point of the first period. In the third period, the image generator (CCP_) uses a result of the processing in the second period.
