Claim Text:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a first substrate including a common electrode formed over a plurality of pixels, an insulation film covering the common electrode, and a pixel electrode which is formed in each of the pixels on the insulation film and is opposed to the common electrode and in which a slit is formed; a second substrate including a first light-shield portion extending in a first direction with a first width and including a first portion and a second portion, a second light-shield portion located between the first portion and the second portion and extending in a second direction crossing the first direction with a second width which is less than the first width, a first intermediate light-shield portion which connects the first portion and the second light-shield portion and extends in a gradually widening fashion from a first terminal end portion of the first portion toward a first edge of the second light-shield portion, a second intermediate light-shield portion which connects the second portion and the second light-shield portion and extends in a gradually widening fashion from a second terminal end portion of the second portion toward a second edge of the second light-shield portion, a first color filter which is disposed on one side of the second light-shield portion, covers the first portion and the first intermediate light-shield portion and extends on the second intermediate light-shield portion beyond the second light-shield portion, a second color filter disposed on the other side of the second light-shield portion and covering the second portion, an overcoat layer covering the first color filter and the second color filter, and a columnar spacer extending toward the first substrate from a position overlapping the first color filter extending on the second intermediate light-shield portion; and a liquid crystal layer held between the first substrate and the second substrate.
