A pixel electrode and a display device capable of lowering power consumption with a uniformity of luminance retained, and realizing a display image having a high contrast and a high image quality, wherein a correction period for correcting a variation in properties of a drive transistor in a pixel during a frame, a write period for driving a first switch by a first control line and writing a data signal from a signal line to the node, and a drive period for storing the written data signal and driving an electro-optical element, are set, and the drive is controlled so that an interval having the correction period, the write period, and the drive period, and an interval having the write period and the drive period without the correction period exist.
