Abstract

An image displaying apparatus, in which a plurality of image data of parts are stored in a ROM (read only memory) which parts are representative of elements of a portrait such as eyes, eyebrows, a nose, hair, an outline of a face and so on, image data of the parts selected by operation of a key input unit are read out from the ROM and are combined on a display unit of a dot matrix type, whereby a desired portrait is displayed thereon. A display position on the display unit where each of the image data combined into the above desired portrait is to be displayed is previously determined. The display position can be changed by operation of up/down keys or left/right keys provided in the key input unit. Using these keys, a wide variety of portraits which are rich in expression may be composed.
