Abstract: A white light beam from a light source portion (201) is separated into respective light beams of red, green and blue by a color separation optical system (204). The respective light beams are reflected by a rotating polygon mirror (207), travel via a second optical system (210) and form belt-like illuminated regions on an image display panel (212). By a rotation of the rotating polygon mirror (207), the illuminated regions of the respective light beams move continuously, and each pixel of the image display panel (212) is driven by a signal corresponding to a color of light entering this pixel. An image on the image display panel (212) is magnified and projected onto a screen by a projection optical system (216).
