Color filter and liquid crystal display device having the same

A color filter, comprising a plurality of colored layers which are arranged adjacently to each other and have different spectroscopic properties, wherein at least one of said plural colored layers is obtained by blending a polyfunctional monomer and a photoinitiator with a copolymer of a polymerizable dye and other polymerizable monomer to provide a photosensitive colored composition, which is then applied on a transparent substrate, and photopolymerizing said polyfunctional monomer, said copolymer having been previously made by copolymerizing said dye and said other monomer, said polymerizable dye based on a triphenylmethane dye and said other monomer selected from the group consisting of a styrene compound, a unsaturated carboxylic acid, an ester thereof, an amide thereof, an anhydride thereof, and a vinyl compound, and wherein said composition further contains a soluble polymer.
