Provided is a display panel (10), comprising a first substrate (31) and a second substrate (32) arranged oppositely; a liquid crystal layer (33) arranged between the first substrate (31) and the second substrate (32); a first black matrix layer (34) arranged on a side of the first substrate (31) that faces the second substrate (32); a second black matrix layer (35) arranged on a side of the second substrate (32) that faces the first substrate (31); and an electrode layer (36) arranged on a side of at least one of the first substrate (31) and the second substrate (32) that faces the liquid crystal layer (33), the electrode layer (36) being used to generate an electric field within the liquid crystal layer (33). The display panel (10) is divided into a plurality of pixel units (30a), and each pixel unit (30a) includes at least one pixel portion. A portion of the first black matrix layer (34) corresponding to the pixel portion comprises a light shielding portion (341) and a light transmitting portion (342) surrounding the light shielding portion (341). On the second black matrix layer (35), a light through hole (351) is provided in an area corresponding to the light shielding portion (341). Displaying can be performed without using a polarizer (14, 15), thereby reducing light loss.
