1. A polarizing plate comprising: a polarizer; and a pattern layer stacked on a light exit surface of the polarizer, wherein:
the pattern layer comprises a second resin layer and a first resin layer sequentially stacked from the polarizer;
a first patterned portion comprising a plurality of first optical patterns is formed at an interface between the first resin layer and the second resin layer, each of the plurality of first opitcal patterns comprising a convex pattern protruding from the second resin layer toward the first resin layer;
a second patterned portion comprising a plurality of second optical patterns is formed on a lower surface of the second resin layer, each of the plurality of second optical patterns comprising an embossed pattern protruding from the second resin layer toward the polarizer; and
the first optical patterns and the second optical patterns satisfy the following Relations 1 and 2:
0 μm<W1≤15 μm;   [Relation 1]
0 μm<W2≤(W1×3),   [Relation 2]
where W1 is a maximum width (unit: μm) of the first optical pattern, and W2 is a maximum width (unit: μm) of the second optical pattern, the maximum width of the second optical pattern being greater than the maximum width of the first optical pattern.
