Abstract
An image display device includes an imaging unit that captures an area including at least a part of a rear wheel of the vehicle and an electronic control unit that: determines whether the vehicle will turn and travel; displays a whole or a part of the area on a display as a non-turning-time image when it is determined by the electronic control unit that the vehicle will travel without turning; displays the whole or a part of the area on the display as a turning-time image when it is determined by the electronic control unit that the vehicle will turn and travel; and sets the turning-time image in such a way that a driver visually recognizes a state of the rear wheel more easily through the turning-time image than through the non-turning-time image.
