A method is provided for displaying an image in a liquid crystal display which enables a scale of a power supply circuit for supplying power to a backlight to be small-sized and the power supply circuit to be low-priced and power consumption of the backlight to be reduced and which enables a flickering phenomenon, a trail-leaving phenomenon (trail-effect), and an image-retention phenomenon to be decreased. In the method for displaying the image in the liquid crystal display device, based on a motion vector, by doing switching between an image signal making up the above image and a blanking signal and by applying a plurality of data electrodes making up the liquid crystal display device, an image signal or a non-image signal is displayed.
