An image display apparatus includes an image forming element, an illumination optical system that guides light emitted from a light source to the image forming element, and a plurality of lenses that project a trapezoidal image formed by the image forming element onto a projected surface. The plurality of lenses have an optical axis that is at an inclination of 1° or more with respect to a perpendicular of a plane including an image forming surface of the image forming element.
