Abstract
A liquid crystal display apparatus includes a liquid crystal panel having a pair of substrates, a plurality of electrodes formed on at least one of the pair of substrates and a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the pair of substrates, and a light source provided on the back surface of the liquid crystal panel. The light source has the luminous characteristic with the chromaticity of a warm color family, and the liquid crystal panel has a spectral transmission characteristic with the chromaticity of a cold color family, whereby the color of the light source can be compensated.
