An image display device, and a production method thereof are provided, which maximize suppression of warping of a protective panel. A liquid crystal display panel and a transparent protective panel formed from a plastic are arranged facing each other via a cured resin. An outer dimension of the protective panel is made larger than an outer dimension of the display panel. Curing is carried out with an edge of the protective panel fixed with a fixing jig during and after curing. Alternatively, the outer dimension of the protective panel is substantially equal to an outer dimension of the display panel, which is substantially equal to an inner dimension of a case and the protective panel. Curing is carried out with the resin composition in contact with substantially the whole face of the protective panel.
