A display device includes a pixel array section, the pixel array section having pixels arranged in a matrix form, at least one of the pixels including an electro-optical element, a write transistor, a holding capacitance, a drive transistor, and a switching transistor. A write scan line is disposed for each pixel row of the pixel array section and adapted to convey a write signal to be applied to the gate electrode of the write transistor. The wiring structure of the write scan line does not intersect with the wiring pattern connected to the gate electrode of the drive transistor.
