Claim:
1. A liquid crystal display, comprising: a first substrate; a plurality of pixel electrodes comprising a pixel electrode disposed on the first substrate and including a plate-like electrode having a plate shape and a plurality of minute branches extending from a side of the plate-like electrode to the outside; a second substrate facing the first substrate; a plurality of common electrodes comprising a common electrode disposed below the second substrate and including a plurality of minute branches positioned to correspond to the plate-like electrode of the pixel electrode and a plate-like electrode positioned to corresponding to the plurality of minute branches of the pixel electrode; and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein: the pixel electrode and the common electrode each include four domains, the domains are arranged in 2 rows×2 columns, a first domain is disposed in a second column of a first row, a second domain is disposed in a first column of the first row, a third domain is disposed in a first column of a second row, and a fourth domain is disposed in a second column of the second row, and a plurality of pixels including the pixel electrodes and the common electrodes include vertical central regions disposed between the first and fourth domains and the second and third domains and horizontal central regions disposed between the first and second domains and the third and fourth domains.
