An image display apparatus comprising:

• a display;
• a wireless transmission device separated from the display and configured to transmit video data to the display through a wireless communication scheme;
• and
• at least one antenna apparatus including:
• a first part of the at least one antenna apparatus that is disposed on an area corresponding to a front frame around a panel of the display;
• a second part of the at least one antenna device that is disposed in an area corresponding to a rear frame in a lower portion of the panel;
• a substrate;
• an opaque metal electrode disposed in a first area on an upper portion of the substrate;
• a metal mesh disposed in a second area on the upper portion of the substrate;
• and
• a protective layer disposed on the metal mesh,
• wherein a bending is formed at a boundary between the front frame and the rear frame,
• wherein the protective layer and the substrate are more transparent than the metal mesh,
• wherein a size of the second area is greater than a size of the first area,
• wherein a width of the opaque metal electrode is the same as a width of the metal mesh,
• wherein the opaque metal electrode is disposed in the area corresponding to the front frame, and the metal mesh is disposed in the area corresponding to the rear frame, and
• wherein the protective layer is further disposed on a part of the opaque metal electrode and a boundary area in which the opaque metal electrode and the metal mesh are contacted.
