Abstract
A liquid crystal display including gate signal lines; source signal lines crossing the gate signal lines; an interlayer insulating film formed on the gate signal lines and the source signal lines; and pixel electrodes formed on the interlayer insulating film, wherein a first pixel electrode and a second pixel electrode adjacent to each other at both sides of the gate signal line partially overlap the gate signal line sandwiched by the first pixel electrode and the second pixel electrode, and an overlap width of the first pixel electrode on the gate signal line is different from an overlap width of the second pixel electrode on the gate signal line.
