    Abstract: A liquid crystal display device includes a plurality of subpixels arranged in one column and n rows (where n is an even number ? four) within each pixel. In two of the pixels, which are adjacent to each other in the row direction, subpixels that represent the same color belong to the same row. If two of the pixels, which are adjacent to each other in the column direction, are called first and second pixels, respectively, a first half of the subpixels having a combination of first colors are located in odd-numbered rows in the first pixel and in even-numbered rows in the second pixel, while a second half of the subpixels having a combination of second colors, the second colors being different from the first colors, are located in even-numbered rows in the first pixel and in odd-numbered rows in the second pixel.
