During each of frame periods, an image including gradation information is displayed at once on a display screen. Electrons are emitted in a second stage from all the pixels, independent of row scanning, separately from a first stage based on the row scanning. A display has a plurality of electron emitters arrayed in association with a plurality of pixels, and the image is displayed by electrons emitted from electron emitters. In each of the electron emitters, electrons are emitted from a first electrode toward an emitter to charge the emitter in the first stage, and the electrons are emitted from the emitter in the second stage.
