To provide a display device capable of performing high quality display and a driving method for a display panel.

An organic electro luminescence display 1 is equipped with an organic electro luminescence display panel 2, pixels Pi, jare arranged like a matrix in the organic electro luminescence display panel 2 and the pixels Pi, jare provided with organic EL elements Ei, jand pixel circuits Di, j. The organic electro luminescence display panel 2 is driven by a data driver 3, a selection scanning driver 5 and a voltage supply driver 6. When the pixel circuits Di, jare selected by the selection scanning driver 5, they hold in a transistor 23 voltage at a level according to size of tone specification current which flows to a signal line Yj. The pixel circuits Di, jsupply drive current with size according to a voltage level of the transistor 23 to the organic El elements Ei, jin a luminescence period.
