A display assistance device detects the steering angle of a vehicle by using a steering angle sensor, and changes the position of a virtual viewpoint behind the host vehicle based on the detected steering angle. Then, the display assistance device converts images captured using a plurality of cameras such as a front camera and a rear camera into an overhead image of a downward view from the virtual viewpoint, and displays the converted overhead image on a display with a host vehicle icon superimposed on the overhead image, the host vehicle icon indicating the position of the vehicle.
