Abstract

An image display panel is prepared which has in an in-plane thereof an image display area for displaying an image and a framing area surrounding the image display area. Light shielding ink is supplied from an ink supply source to at least a partial surface area of the framing area of the image display panel. In this case, the ink supply source is made not in contact with the image display panel. Even if the frame structure of an image display device such as a liquid crystal display is made narrow, the image quality in a peripheral area of the image display area becomes hard to be lowered.
