<p>A liquid crystal display device comprising first and second polarizing elements of which transmission axes are perpendicular to each other, and, disposed between the polarizing elements, a liquid crystal layer vertically aligned in a black state, and first and second optically anisotropic layer is disclosed. In the liquid crystal display device, the first optically anisotropic layer is a biaxial optically anisotropic layer of which in-plane retardation (Re) and thickness-direction retardation (Rth) are larger at a longer wavelength range within a range of from 400 nm to 700 nm, and the second optically anisotropic layer satisfies Orim<lRe(550)1<10nm and |Rth(550) |/|Re(550) |>10
in which Re (550) is in-plane retardation (Re) at a wavelength of 550 nm and Rth (550) is thickness-direction retardation at the same wavelength.</p> |
