A display apparatus including a substrate 22; an organic EL device including an electrode 24 which is formed on the substrate 22, an organic EL layer 26 which is formed on the electrode 24, and an electrode 30 which is formed on the organic EL layer 26; an inorganic insulating film 34 which is formed on the organic EL device, sealing the organic EL layer; and a substrate 38 which is formed on the inorganic insulating film 34, wherein the material and the thickness of the substrate 22 and the substrate 38 are set such that the neutral axis when a bending stress is applied is located in the vicinity of the interface between the inorganic insulating film 34 and the substrate 38. By configuring such a display apparatus, occurrence of cracks in the inorganic insulating film is prevented, and the organic EL device can be effectively protected against moisture and oxygen. As a result, the reliability of the display apparatus can be improved.
