A display device suppresses the influence of variations of a current value supplied to a light emitting element caused by a temperature change. In particular, luminance variations caused by a temperature gradient in a pixel portion due to a heat generated from a source signal line driver circuit are suppressed. In a display device including a gate signal line provided in a row direction, a source signal line provided in a column direction, and a light emitting element in a pixel portion arranged in matrix corresponding to the gate signal line and the source signal line, a column of monitor elements is provided beside the pixel portion, a constant current is supplied to each row of the monitor elements, and a voltage generated at the monitor element for each row of pixels is applied to light emitting elements of the corresponding row.
