Abstract

A vertical orientation type liquid crystal display having an orientation controlling means such as an orientation control window or an orientation control slope portion, wherein a storage capacitor electrode is disposed between a storage capacitor line extending across pixels and the liquid crystal, thereby blocking electric field generated by the storage capacitor line. This arrangement provides a liquid crystal display having a high display quality and free from orientation control disturbances due to storage capacitor lines.
