Display device

A display device, comprising:

• a first substrate;
• a second substrate opposed to the first substrate;
• and
• a liquid crystal layer held between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the first substrate includes:
• a first pixel electrode arranged in a display area;
• a second pixel electrode and a third pixel electrode arranged in a surrounding area around the display area;
• the first, second, and third pixel electrodes being arrayed on the first substrate in a matrix in a first direction and a second direction;
• and
• a first light-shielding layer including an aperture overlapping with each of the first, second, and third pixel electrodes,
• the second substrate includes a second light shielding layer surrounding the display area and overlapping with the surrounding area in plan view, and
• a width in the first direction of the first light-shielding layer arranged at a position overlapping with an end portion elongated in the second direction of the display area is greater than a width between apertures overlapping with the first and second pixel electrodes in the first direction.
