Abstract

A display apparatus and control method are provided. The display apparatus includes a transparent display panel, an image processor that processes an image signal to display an image on the transparent display panel based on the processed image signal, a sensor which senses a user located in front of and behind the transparent display panel. The display apparatus includes a controller that determines by the sensor whether a user is located in front of, or behind, the transparent display panel if the image is displayed on the transparent display panel to be normally recognized by a user located in front of the transparent display panel. The controller controls the image processor to selectively display on the transparent display panel a reverse image of the image to be normally recognized by a user located behind the transparent display panel according to the determination.
