A display device includes a display part; a driving part; and a display control part, the display control part being configured to provide a transition period between first and second driving periods in switching from the first driving period to the second driving period, the first driving period allowing the display part to be driven at a first frame frequency, the second driving period allowing the display part to be driven at a second frame frequency, the transition period including a period where the display part is driven at at least one frame frequency with a value between the first and second frame frequencies, the transition period including positive and negative periods that last for different total durations, the positive period allowing the display part to be driven at a positive voltage, the negative period allowing the display part to be driven at a negative voltage.
