A polarizing plate is provided with an optical compensation film and
includes a polarizing plate, an adhesive layer A, an optical compensation
film, and an adhesive layer B adhered to one another, wherein the
polarizing plate comprises a polyvinyl alcohol polarizing film containing
a dichroic substance, and wherein the elastic modulus of the adhesive
layer A of the polarizing plate with an optical compensation film is not
greater than 0.06 MPa. Furthermore, a liquid crystal display is provided
in which the polarizing plate with an optical compensation film is
furnished on at least one side of the liquid crystal cell. Thus, display
irregularities can be improved.
