Abstract

There is provided a circularly polarizing plate capable of realizing a bendable display apparatus in which an excellent reflection hue is obtained and a color change due to bending is suppressed. A circularly polarizing plate according to the present invention is used in a bendable display apparatus. The circularly polarizing plate includes: a polarizer; and a retardation film arranged on one side of the polarizer. In-plane retardations of the retardation film satisfy a relationship of Re(450)<Re(550)<Re(650), and a slow axis direction of the retardation film is adjusted so as to form an angle of from 20° to 70° with respect to a bending direction of the display apparatus.
