Abstract
A liquid crystal display device of the present invention includes: a active matrix substrate; a liquid crystal layer; and a counter substrate opposing the active matrix substrate with the liquid crystal layer interposed therebetween. The active matrix substrate includes a plurality of scanning lines, a plurality of signal lines crossing the scanning lines, a plurality of switching elements each provided near a crossing of each scanning line and each signal line, an insulating film, and a plurality of pixel electrodes at least partially overlapping the scanning lines and the signal lines with the insulating film interposed therebetween. The counter substrate includes a plurality of color filters. Adjoining color filters of different colors on the counter substrate at least partially overlap each other at a position corresponding to a boundary between adjoining pixel electrodes on the active matrix substrate.
