2. A display device comprising a plurality of organic EL elements each having a light extraction electrode, a reflective electrode, and a plurality of organic compound layers disposed between the electrodes,
wherein the plurality of organic EL elements include at least organic EL elements which emit a red light, a green light, and a blue light, respectively; a layer comprising a material having anomalous dispersion is disposed at a location which is on a light extraction side with respect to the reflective electrode in each of the plurality of organic EL elements; and an ambient light reflectance of the display device shows a minimum in a region from 535 nm to 575 nm,
wherein the material having anomalous dispersion comprises tungsten carbide.
