A liquid crystal display device includes an electrode substrate, a liquid crystal layer with no twist, a first retardation plate, a second retardation plate, polarizing plates, and a color filter. The first and second retardation plates have slow axes that are parallel or perpendicular to the alignment direction of liquid crystal molecules. The product of the refractive anisotropy Deltan of the liquid crystal layer and the thickness d of the liquid crystal layer, the retardation R 1 of the first retardation plate and the retardation R 2 of the second retardation plate satisfy at least one of the relational expressions: <?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?>530 nm<=Deltand+R 1 +R 2 <=570 nm,<?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?> <?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?>-20 nm<=Deltand-R 1 -R 2 <=20 nm,<?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?> <?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?>255 nm<=Deltand-R 1 +R 2 <=295 nm, and<?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?> <?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?>255 nm<=Deltand+R 1 -R 2 <=295 nm.<?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?>
