Claim One:
1. A display device comprising: a liquid crystal display panel; a drive section driving said liquid crystal display panel; and a light shutter control section controlling a light shutter, wherein said liquid crystal display panel includes an effective display region, wherein said drive section is configured to display first, second, and third images on said effective display region of said liquid crystal display panel during a specific period, wherein said liquid crystal display panel is configured to allow perceiving said first, second, and third images only from a direction in a specific viewing angle range which is narrower than a range in which said effective display region is observable, at least during said specific period, wherein said light shutter control section controls said light shutter so that said light shutter is placed into a transmitting state allowing transmitting light during a period during which said first image is displayed in said specific period and placed into a shielding state shielding light during a remaining period in said specific period, wherein said first and second images are generated so that an image generated by adding brightnesses of respective pixels of said first and second images has no correlation to said first image, wherein said specific viewing angle range is determined based on gamma characteristics of said liquid crystal display panel and so that grayscale level reversal does not occur when said liquid crystal display panel is observed from a direction in said specific viewing angle range, and wherein only said first image is perceived in a case that said effective display region is observed through said light shutter from a direction in said specific viewing angle range, and only said third image is perceived in a case that said effective display region is observed from the direction in said specific viewing angle range without using the light shutter.
