Abstract
A projective optical system comprises: a lens optical system including lenses; and a transmissive optical element having an anamorphic surface and being provided in an optical path between the lens optical system and a projected surface, wherein the transmissive optical element has a curvature with respect to a direction corresponding to a long side of a display screen of the image display element, and on a cross-sectional surface being perpendicular to the long side of the display screen, and with respect to light being emitted from the lens optical system and being incident to the transmissive optical element, a light intensity of a first light flux being incident to the transmissive optical element at a first incident angle is lower than a light intensity of a second light flux being incident to the transmissive optical element at a second incident angle being larger than the first incident angle.
