In 2000 Dave Birrell described Mount Rundle as one of the most recognized Canadian mountains.<ref name="Birrell_2000">{{citation|title=50 Roadside Panoramas in the Canadian Rockies|last=Birrell|first=Dave|year=2000|publisher=Rocky Mountain Books Ltd}}</ref>  Painter, print-maker and art teacher, [[Walter Joseph Phillips|Walter Phillips]] [[Royal Canadian Academy of Arts|RCA]]<ref group="Notes">Walter Phillips played an important role in the development of their visual arts program  at the [[Banff Centre]], then known as the Banff School of Fine Arts. Its [[Walter Phillips Gallery]], which focuses on [[contemporary art]], is named after him. The [[Glenbow Museum]] in Calgary, Alberta holds an extensive collection of Phillips works and a research archive.</ref> (1884–1963) described Mount Rundle as his, "bread and butter mountain. I never tire of painting it, for it is never the same. In deep shadow in the morning, it borrows a warm glow from the setting sun at the end of the day. Its colour runs the gamut from orange to cold blue-grey, with overtones of violet and intervals of green."
