PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid crystal display having superior display quality. SOLUTION: An optical compensation sheet used for the liquid crystal display consists of a transparent support body and an optically anisotropic layer formed on the support body. The transparent support body shows 0 to 20 nm for retardation value Re and 70 to 400 nm retardation Rth. The optical anisotropic layer consists of a compound, having discotic structural units and shows negative birefringence. In the layer, the disk faces of the discotic structural units are tilted with respect to the face of the transparent support body and the angle between the disc face of the discotic structural units and the face of the transparent support body varies in the depth direction of the optical anisotropic layer. |
