Abstract

A liquid crystal display device includes a first liquid crystal display panel in which a first main pixel including subpixels is arranged in a matrix, and that displays a color image, and a second liquid crystal display panel that includes a second main pixel corresponding to a plurality of the first main pixel, and that displays a monochrome image. The second main pixel is divided into a plurality of regions, and has pixel electrodes disposed in the plurality of regions and a plurality of light shields. At least a portion of the plurality of light shields is formed from a switching element that connects to each of the pixel electrodes, and the plurality of light shields is arranged in a staggered manner. The light shields positioned within one set of the regions formed from adjacent regions forms one set of the light shields.
