Abstract
An image display device includes: a display panel including gate lines extending in a horizontal direction, source lines extending in a vertical direction to intersect gate lines, and sub-pixel electrodes arranged in intersections of the gate lines and the source lines; and a drive control section performing a drive control of the display panel using first or second drive mode. In the first drive mode, the drive control section performs display drive such that two sub-pixel electrodes are driven based on different gray scale values and that a combination of adjacent two sub-pixel electrodes is treated as a single pixel, the sub-pixel electrodes being arranged along a gate line and arranged on two respective source lines. In the second drive mode, the drive control section performs display drive such that N sub-pixel electrodes consecutively arranged along a source line are treated as a unit pixel to be driven.
