The present invention provides an electro-optical device for displaying sharp
color images at low cost. The electro-optical device can include a first substrate,
a second substrate facing the first substrate, an electro-optical layer which is
disposed between the first and second substrates and which includes electrophoretic
particles and a dispersion medium, and a colored layer which is located at a position
corresponding to the electro-optical layer and which includes at least one color
element, wherein at least a part of the dispersion medium has substantially the
same color as that of the color element.
