ABSTRACT:
An image display device has three reflective image display elements for red, green and blue to form an optical image according to a video signal from light output from a light source, and an optical system to supply light onto the display elements and to combine and output the light reflected from the display elements. The image display device includes a first polarity converting unit to convert luminous flux from the light source to S polarized light, a first polarized beam splitter, and second polarized beam splitter. The reflective image display element for green is provided in a vicinity of the first polarized beam splitter, and the light reflected by the first polarized beam splitter and input to the reflective image display element for green is S polarized light. The light output from the reflective image display element for green permeates the first and second polarized beam splitters.
