Display devices and methods capable of reversing brightness deterioration in electroluminescence elements while maintaining display quality, with simple pixel circuits and no manufacturing yield reduction, are provided. A display device includes luminescence pixels that each include a driving transistor, a luminescence element, and a switching transistor which switches between conduction and non-conduction states between a data line and the luminescence element. A data driving circuit supplies a signal voltage to the data line and a bias supplying circuit supplies a specified bias voltage to the data line. A control unit applies the specified bias voltage to an anode or cathode of the luminescence element by causing conduction between the data line and the data driving circuit, causing non-conduction between the data line and the bias supplying circuit, and turning the switching transistor ON, all within a period in which a signal current does not flow to the luminescence element.
