A primary object of the present invention is to provide a liquid crystal
display device being capable of displaying an image with large color
reappearance area and a genuine hue and chroma, while controlling a
displacement of white chromaticity caused by changes of viewing angles.
The device includes: a light source; a back light controlling a luminous
intensity distribution from the light source; and a liquid crystal
display panel controlling a transmission rate of light from the back
light. The maximum intensity of a light emitting spectrum of the back
light is in a range of 510 nm to 530 nm in a wavelength range of 500 nm
to 550 nm, wherein the liquid crystal panel includes a red color filter
transmitting red components, a green color filter transmitting green
components and a blue color filter transmitting blue components, and a
transmit spectrum of the green color filter includes a half value of a
maximum transmitting rate of 500 nm to 590 nm in a wavelength range. The
change of the transmit spectrum between viewing angle of 0.degree. and
60.degree. is within 20% from front direction in a wavelength range of
500 nm to 600 nm.
