An image display device and a method of driving the same are provided. The image display device includes a lenticular lens array, a first backlit display element that is positioned on the lenticular lens array and is driven at a frame frequency of N×60 Hz, where N is an integer equal to or greater than 1, and a light source module under the lenticular lens array. The first backlit display element displays a video signal of a 2D format in a 2D mode and displays a video signal of an N-view 3D format in a 3D mode. The light source module irradiates light in the form of a surface light source onto the lenticular lens array in the 2D mode and irradiates light in the form of a plurality of line light sources onto the lenticular lens array in the 3D mode.
