Bernard Mulrenin, RHA (1803 – 22 March 1868[4]) was an Irish painter best known for his miniatures.[3][5]

He is associated with the early Celtic Revival movement,[7][8] and is remembered for his leadership and frequent exhibitions at the Royal Hibernian Academy.[3] The subjects of Mulrenin's portraiture include individuals connected to Irish Nationalism, both Protestant and Catholic.
