A display device with favorable display quality is provided. A display portion where a plurality of pixels is arranged in a matrix is divided into Region A and Region B, i.e., regions on the upstream side and the downstream side of a scanning direction. A signal line for supplying an image signal is provided in each of Region A and Region B. Region A and Region B adjoin each other such that a boundary line showing the boundary between the regions is bent. Bending the boundary line suppresses formation of a stripe in a boundary portion. For example, in a given column, the total number of pixels electrically connected to a signal line in Region A is made different from the total number of pixels electrically connected to a signal line in Region B.

Disclosed are a divisional exposure apparatus which allows for forming a PAC layer uniformly on RGBW subpixels by a single mask process, using divisional exposure, in a large-size liquid crystal display with a COT structure, and a method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display using the same. To this end, the sum of illumination intensities at the center of an overlap region is controlled in the range of 120% to 130%, and gradually increases from 100% at the edge (boundary) of the overlap region. Accordingly, the cell gap between the RGB subpixels and the W subpixel is made uniform, thus preventing the problem of spots.
