High quality images on liquid crystal panel can be obtained alleviating variations of the brightness and color among regions, in which backlight is divided when emission luminance of the backlight is controlled in each region based on image signal. A backlight device is divided into multiple regions, and has a configuration in which light emitted from a light source of each of the regions is allowed to leak to other regions. A maximum gradation detector detects a maximum gradation of a regional image signal displayed on each of the regions of the liquid crystal panel. An image gain calculator obtains a gain to be multiplied to each regional image signal by using luminance bitmap held by luminance bitmap memory. An emission luminance calculator obtains an emission luminance of light to be emitted by each light source. |
