An image display device is provided, which includes a first substrate having a cold-cathode electron-emission element which emits electrons, and a second substrate which is spaced from and opposed to the first substrate. The second substrate has a transparent substrate, a light-emitting layer provided on the transparent substrate and including phosphor particles containing zinc sulfide as a base material, a boron nitride film disposed on a surface of the light-emitting layer, and an anode applying a voltage to the light-emitting layer.
