Claim:
1. A liquid crystal display comprising: a first substrate; a pixel electrode which is disposed on the first substrate and comprises: a first subpixel electrode which is disposed at a pixel area and includes a plurality of first branch electrodes; and a second subpixel electrode which is separated from the first subpixel electrode, disposed at an outer edge of the pixel area, encloses the first subpixel electrode and includes a plurality of second branch electrodes; a second substrate facing the first substrate; a common electrode disposed on the second substrate; and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the plurality of second branch electrodes extends in four different directions from the outer stem which surrounds four outer sides of the second subpixel electrode, and wherein a first voltage applied to the first subpixel electrode is larger than a second voltage applied to the second subpixel electrode.
