There is provided a liquid crystal display device that reduces viewing angle color mixture on a high definition screen. In the liquid crystal display device, a pixel electrode is formed on a region surrounded by scanning lines and picture signal lines. The scanning line is insulated from the picture signal line by a first insulating film. An organic insulating film is formed to cover the picture signal line. The organic insulating film is not formed below the pixel electrode. A common electrode is formed to cover the organic insulating film and the first insulating film. A second insulating film is formed to cover the common electrode. The pixel electrode is formed on the second insulating film. On the organic insulating film, a metal light shielding film is formed as extending in a second direction. The metal light shielding film is in contact with the common electrode.
