An embodiment of the present disclosure relates to an image generation device including an image acquisition unit, a position recognition unit, a boundary line setting unit, and an image compositing unit. The image acquisition unit is mounted to a vehicle, and configured to acquire a plurality of captured images in which the periphery of the vehicle is imaged by a plurality of imaging units having an overlap region where imaging regions thereof partially overlap with each other. The position recognition unit is configured to recognize positions of specific obstacles which are one or more obstacles positioned in the overlap region. The boundary line setting unit is configured to set the boundary line so that each of the specific obstacles is contained in the image captured by the imaging unit which is closest in distance to the specific obstacle, among the plurality of imaging units. The image compositing unit is configured to generate a composite image in which the plurality of captured images are combined, using the boundary line as a boundary when combining the plurality of captured images.
