Disclosed is a display device capable of achieving a high definition imaging without depending on micronization of display cells. The display device includes: a display panel in which display cells capable of being independently driven are two-dimensionally arranged; and a drive circuit that decomposes an original image that includes plural pixels into plural sub-sampling images that include the pixels which are respectively intermittent in a row direction and a column direction, and sequentially displays the plural sub-sampling images on the display panel. The drive circuit drives a display cell group including plural display cells that are two-dimensionally arranged to be adjacent to each other, corresponding to the respective pixels. The display cell groups respectively corresponding to two arbitrary sub-sampling images are overlapped and are disposed to be mutually shifted.
