Known for his influential role, he made significant contributions to the political landscape of his era. In an advertisement for Debrett's Peerage, Walter Runciman's name stood proudly alongside other titled men of note. The photomontage with illustrations showcased their esteemed positions in society. Among them was Major Isidore Salmon, who held the honorable title of Knight.

One such masterpiece is "Perseus and the Sleeping Medusa, " painted in 1774. This painting showcases Alexander's artistic prowess and attention to detail. A photograph captured Mr. Lloyd George, Mr. Runciman, and Mr. Henderson at the Park Hotel in Cardiff after their important interview together. Their meeting undoubtedly played a crucial role in shaping political decisions during that period. Another remarkable artwork by Alexander Runciman is "Classical Landscape, " which was created between 1767-1771. This piece demonstrates his ability to capture nature's beauty through brushstrokes on canvas. In 1772, Alexander also immortalized Robert Fergusson through artistry with his painting titled "Robert Fergusson (1750-1774). " This portrait serves as a tribute to Fergusson's life and achievements.
