## Abstract

A display device includes a light-emitting region including first, second, and third light-emitting devices that are spaced apart from each other, and a color filter layer including a light-shielding portion, a first color filter that overlaps the first light-emitting device in a thickness direction, a second color filter that overlaps the second light-emitting device in the thickness direction, and a third color filter that overlaps the third light-emitting device in the thickness direction. One end portion of the first color filter is disposed on the light-shielding portion, and one end portion of the third color filter is disposed on the first color filter arranged on the light-shielding portion. A first spacing distance between the one end portion of the first color filter and the one end portion of the third color filter in a plan view is in a range from 0.1 μm to 5.0 μm.
