Abstract

A projection type image display device includes an oblique projection optical system that magnifies and projects modulated image light, and includes lens elements and a reflection mirror having a convex surface. A center of an outer shape of one or more of the lens elements at a nearest position to the reflection mirror is positioned above an optical axis. The reflection mirror has a reflection surface shape orthogonal to a projection plane inclusive of the optical axis of the reflection mirror. The reflection surface shape and lens element are formed as specified. For example, the reflection surface shape is formed so that an average radius of curvature in an area through which a light flux focused at a center of the projection plane passes is smaller than that of curvature in an area through which a light flux focused at an upper end portion of the projection plane passes.
