Abstract
A liquid crystal display composed of an array substrate; a color filter substrate; a liquid crystal material interposed therebetween; a plurality of parallely spaced gate bus lines; a plurality of parallely spaced source bus lines; a plurality of pixel electrodes; a plurality of colored layers; and a light shield portion; wherein at a central portion of the first pixel pattern, gravity center of first pixel portion provided at the central portion of the first pixel pattern corresponds to gravity center of second pixel portion provided at a central portion of the second pixel pattern; and wherein at an end portion of the first pixel pattern, with respect to each viewing angle to each pixel, each second distance between any two adjacent gravity centers of pixels provided in the second pixel pattern is reduced to be shorter by prescribed length than each corresponding first distance between any two adjacent gravity centers of pixels corresponding to gravity centers of pixels provided in the first pixel pattern, in whole display area, so that the light shield portion on the color filter substrate shields leakage of light from the array substrate.
