Abstract

A color filter of the present invention includes a large number of colored layers of a plurality of colors regularly arranged together. The color filter is such thatxWH−0.05≦xB≦xWH+0.05 and yWH−0.05≦yB≦yWH+0.05orxWH−0.10≦xB≦xWH and yWH−0.10≦yB≦yWHis satisfied, where (xWH, yWH) is the chromaticity in the CIE 1931 chromaticity diagram when the filter alone is irradiated with light to produce a white display, and (xB, yB) is the chromaticity in the CIE 1931 chromaticity diagram when the filter is irradiated with the same light while being interposed between a pair of polarization plates arranged in a crossed Nicols state each having a degree of polarization of 99.98% or more.
