Mirza Kadym Irevani was a ornamentalist artist and portraitist, whose work mostly consisted of typical Persian miniatures and lacquers.

Mirza Kadym Irevani is renowned for his drawings and miniature paintings. In the 1850s, he was commissioned by the Russians to repaint the interior of the Erivan Sardar's Palace, which had originally been painted by a Persian artist in 1815. He also painted 4 big (1 м X 2 м) portraits for the Sardar's Palace. Mirza Kadym Erivani's works are kept in the National Art Museum of Azerbaijan, the Art Museum of Georgia, and the Hermitage.
