[PROBLEM] To provide substantially the same voltage to a shutter electrode and a pair of control electrodes, and to prevent degradation of the mechanical shutter, during a discharge period in a movable shutter system in an image display device. [RESOLUTION MEANS] A plurality of pixels are provided each having a mechanical shutter, wherein the mechanical shutter comprises a shutter electrode and first and second control electrodes provided in a pair with respect to the shutter electrode; and the display device displays images by electrically controlling a position of the shutter electrode; wherein the display device comprises a discharge period and a display period, and in the display period, a low voltage drive voltage of VL, or a high voltage drive voltage of VH with a voltage higher than the low voltage drive voltage of VL, is supplied to the shutter electrode, the first control electrode, and the second control electrode, and |Vs−Vp1|≦(VH−VL)/10, and |Vs−Vp2|≦(VH−VL)/10, where Vs is a voltage supplied to the shutter electrode, Vp1 is a voltage supplied to the first control electrode, and Vp2 is a voltage supplied to the second control electrode.
