Abstract

A display apparatus comprises a display panel and a reflection member. The display panel comprises an array of pixels, the array having a quadrangular shape. The reflection member is disposed in a position not to overlap at least a portion of the array when viewed in a normal direction substantially perpendicular to a major surface of the display panel, the reflection member being configured to reflect light that is emitted from the display panel in a direction slanted with respect to the normal direction. The combination of light emitted from the display panel in the normal direction and the reflected light is configured to form an image having a shape other than a quadrangular shape.
