1. A display device comprising:
a display panel including a display region having a plurality of pixels disposed in a matrix having a row-column configuration; and
a light control panel configured to control light traveling from the display panel to a plurality of viewpoints such that the light varies from viewpoint to viewpoint, the plurality of viewpoints including a first viewpoint and a second viewpoint, wherein
the pixels include a first pixel configured to output light in a first color and a second pixel configured to output light in a second color,
the first and second pixels are arranged in a column direction orthogonal to an arrangement direction of the viewpoints,
a width of each pixel in a row direction along the arrangement direction of the viewpoints is greater than a width of the pixel in the column direction,
the display region is divided into partial regions that includes a first partial region and a second partial region that borders on the first partial region in the column direction,
the first partial region is shifted from the second partial region in the row direction,
third pixels of the pixels corresponding to the first viewpoint and arranged in the column direction, and fourth pixels of the pixels corresponding to the second viewpoint are located in the first partial region,
fifth pixels of the pixels corresponding to the first viewpoint and arranged in the column direction, and sixth pixels of the pixels corresponding to the second viewpoint are located in the second partial region,
the fourth pixels are divided into a first pixel group and a second pixel group, the first pixel group located at a first side of the first partial region, the first side being in contact with the second partial region, the second pixel group located at a second side opposite to the first side in the column direction,
the sixth pixels are divided into a third pixel group and a fourth pixel group, the third pixel group located at a third side of the second partial region, the third side being in contact with the first partial region, the fourth pixel group located at a fourth side opposite to the third side in the column direction, and
the first pixel group and the third pixel group are arranged in the column direction.
