A method of producing an image display apparatus which includes the steps of: providing a base having an image display part and a light-transmitting protective part to be arranged on the image display part, said light-transmitting protective part being formed from a light-transmitting member and a shielding part provided on a peripheral region of the face on the base side of the light transmitting member. coating a curable resin composition onto said base or onto said light-transmitting protective part; arranging the base and the protective part to face each other in close proximity; and forming a cured resin layer between the base and the protective part by curing the curable resin composition by irradiation with UV rays via the light-transmitting member of the light-transmitting protective part and with UV rays from the outward side direction of a bonding face of the shielding part of the protective part, wherein as the curable resin composition, a resin composition is used which has a curing shrinkage ratio of 5% or less, a cured product storage modulus of 1x10 7 Pa or less at 25°C at a measurement frequency of 1 Hz, and a light transmittance of the cured resin layer in the visible region of 90% or more when the thickness of the cured resin is 100 μm, and the curable resin composition coated onto the base or the protective part has a pattern with a prescribed shape, the curable resin composition is made to spread between the base and the protective part due to the base and the protective part being arranged facing each other in close proximity, and then the curable resin composition is cured, wherein the pattern of the curable resin composition is formed from a center pattern positioned in a center portion of a coating face of the base or the protective part, and a corner pattern (22a, 22b, 22c, 22d; 24a, 24b, 24c, 24d) which is positioned closer to a corner of the curable coating face than the center portion and which is continuous with or separated from the center pattern, wherein the resin composition contains at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of a polyisoprene acrylate and an ester thereof, a hydrogenated terpene resin and a butadiene polymer; at least one acrylate monomer; and a photopolymerization initiator. providing a base having an image display part and a light-transmitting protective part to be arranged on the image display part, said light-transmitting protective part being formed from a light-transmitting member and a shielding part provided on a peripheral region of the face on the base side of the light transmitting member. coating a curable resin composition onto said base or onto said light-transmitting protective part; arranging the base and the protective part to face each other in close proximity; and forming a cured resin layer between the base and the protective part by curing the curable resin composition by irradiation with UV rays via the light-transmitting member of the light-transmitting protective part and with UV rays from the outward side direction of a bonding face of the shielding part of the protective part, wherein as the curable resin composition, a resin composition is used which has a curing shrinkage ratio of 5% or less, a cured product storage modulus of 1x10 7 Pa or less at 25°C at a measurement frequency of 1 Hz, and a light transmittance of the cured resin layer in the visible region of 90% or more when the thickness of the cured resin is 100 μm, and the curable resin composition coated onto the base or the protective part has a pattern with a prescribed shape, the curable resin composition is made to spread between the base and the protective part due to the base and the protective part being arranged facing each other in close proximity, and then the curable resin composition is cured, wherein the pattern of the curable resin composition is formed from a center pattern positioned in a center portion of a coating face of the base or the protective part, and a corner pattern (22a, 22b, 22c, 22d; 24a, 24b, 24c, 24d) which is positioned closer to a corner of the curable coating face than the center portion and which is continuous with or separated from the center pattern, wherein the resin composition contains at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of a polyisoprene acrylate and an ester thereof, a hydrogenated terpene resin and a butadiene polymer; at least one acrylate monomer; and a photopolymerization initiator.
