A liquid crystal display (LCD) panel construction for producing color images for viewing by a viewer. The LCD panel construction comprises: an illumination panel for producing light including spectral components with wavelengths in a visible band of the electromagenetic spectrum; a plurality of pixel regions within a predefined image display area, wherein each pixel region has a plurality of subpixel region and each said subpixel region within each pixel region has a light transmission portion and a light blocking portion, and each light transmission portion and light blocking portion has a frontside disposed in the direction in the viewer and a backside in the direction of the illumination panel. The illumination panel illuminates the plurality of pixel regions from the backside thereof so that a color image is formed the said plurality of pixel regions for viewing. A pattern of broad-band reflector material is disposed in spatial registration with the backside of the light blocking portions of the subpixel regions, for reflecting produced light at structures associated with the light blocking portions of the subpixels, thereby recycling produced light for use in illuminating said plurality of pixel regions. A pattern of broad-band absorption material is also disposed in spatial registration with the frontside of the light blocking portions of the subpixel regions, for absorbing ambient light incident upon structures associated with the light blocking portions of the subpixels, thereby reducing glare at the surface of the LCD panel due to ambient light incident thereon.
