Provided is an organic light emitting device having high light emitting efficiency and good emission color purity. The organic light emitting device includes an anode, a cathode, and an organic compound layer which is sandwiched between the anode and the cathode, in which one of the anode and the cathode is transparent or semi-transparent and the organic compound layer contains at least one kind of perylene compound represented by the following general formula (1): n n n n n n n n n n n n where R 1 to R 8 each represent a hydrogen atom or a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group; and Ar 1 to Ar 4 each represent a substituent represented by the following general formula (2) or (3). |
