The present invention addresses the problem of providing a pigment composition for obtaining a color filter having improved luminance without increased film thickness. The present invention can provide a pigment composition for a color filter, the composition characterized by containing a zinc halide phthalocyanine pigment and a pigment derivative represented by general formula (1) (in general formula (1), Z1 to Z16 each independently represent a bromine atom, a chlorine atom, a hydrogen atom, or a sulfo group, at least the average number of substituents of the sulfo group is 0.1 to 4, and M represents Al, Si, Sc, Ti, V, Mg, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, Ga, Ge, Y, Zr, Nb, In, Sn, or Pb). The present invention also provides a color filter having the pigment composition in the pixels thereof.
