According to one embodiment, an image display device includes an
image-signal input module, an image-quality corrector, a light emitter,
and a liquid-crystal display module. The image-signal input module
receives an image signal. The image-quality corrector performs, based on
an image-quality correction amount, an image-quality correction process
on the image signal. The light emitter includes a plurality of light
sources for emitting light. The liquid-crystal display module modulates,
among light emitted from the light sources, light transmitted through the
liquid crystal to display an image according to the image signal
subjected to the image-quality correction process. The light emitter
emits the light according to the image signal with less image-quality
correction amount than that of the image signal subjected to the
image-quality correction process.
