A liquid crystal display (1) includes a liquid crystal panel (4), a backlight (2), and a light-diffusing member (7). There exist azimuths in which a transmittance of the liquid crystal panel (4) and a luminance of the backlight (2) are higher than a transmittance and a luminance in a direction of a normal. The azimuth in which the transmittance of the liquid crystal panel (4) is higher coincides with the azimuth in which the luminance of the backlight (2) is higher.
