A liquid crystal display device of the present invention comprises an array substrate 11 equipped with signal lines 33 and scan lines 32 deployed in a matrix arrangement, thin film transistors (TFTs) 34 provided near the intersections of the signal lines 33 and scan lines 32, and pixel electrodes 40 of which one is provided in each of the pixel domains delimited by the signal lines 33 and scan lines 32; a color filter substrate 12 on which are formed color filters 22R to 22B and common electrodes 23; and a liquid crystal layer 13 placed between said two substrates; wherein the pixel electrodes 40 are positioned so as not to overlap the signal lines 33, or not to overlap the scan lines 32, or not to overlap either, when viewed from above, and below the spaces between adjacent pixel electrodes 40, resin black matrices 45 are deployed so as to overlap the pixel electrodes 40 when viewed from above.
