Abstract

A lighting device of the present disclosure includes a light source device and a reflective component. The reflective component reflects an illumination light incident from the light source device off the reflecting surface of the reflective component at incident angle α, and emits the illumination light reflected toward a display element at exit angle β. The reflecting surface of the reflective component is rotated with respect to two axes orthogonal to each other. 20 degrees≤|α−β|≤60 degrees is satisfied. Where, each of the incident angle α and the exit angle β is angle of the illumination light to a horizontal direction of the display element when the illumination light is incident on a front surface of the display element.
