A liquid crystal display apparatus (100) comprises a liquid crystal display panel (1) having a red color filter (22R), a green color filter (22G), and a blue color filter (22B); and an illumination element (2) that illuminates the crystal display panel with white light. The illumination element comprises a light emitting element (51) that emits blue light, a green phosphor (52) that absorbs a portion of the blue light emitted from the light emitting element and that emits green light, and a red phosphor (53) that absorbs a portion of the blue light emitted from the light emitting element and that emits red light. The blue color filter is formed from a coloring material comprising a dye, wherein the chromaticity x, y of the white light emitted from the illumination element satisfies the relationship 0.24 < x and 0.24 < y. |
