A polarizing plate with an optical compensation layer contributing to thinning, and being high in endurance, small in color shift and color unevenness and improved in contrast with light leakage at black displaying satisfactorily prevented, and a liquid crystal panel and an image display unit using such a polarizing plate with an optical compensation layer. The polarizing plate with an optical compensation layer comprises a polarizing plate, a first optical compensation layer and a second optical compensation layer in that order, wherein the polarizing plate has a polarizer protection film containing acrylic resin consisting of a specific structural unit on at least one surface of a polarizer formed of polyvinyl alcohol based resin, the first optical compensation layer has a refractive index distribution of nx>ny=nz, exhibits wavelength dispersion characteristics where a phase difference as the light path difference between an abnormal light and a normal light becomes smaller toward a shorter wave side, and has an in-plane phase difference Re1 of 90-160 nm, and the second compensation layer has a refractive index distribution of nx=ny>nz, an in-plane phase difference Re2 of 0-20 nm, and a phase difference Rth2 in its thickness direction of 30-300 nm.
