Inspired by oriental Lord Byron poem, the painting represents the decisive battle between the Giaour, mounted on a black horse, and Hassan Pasha, on his white horse. The Giaour, standing over his saddle, hard with a wild smile cloth covering the chest of the Pasha to reach the heart with acute blade of his sword. The pasha, precariously balanced on his horse, holding in his right hand a dagger, trying to push her attacker on the other hand. The ferocity of the struggle is also expressed in the attitude of the horse, the black horse biting the chest white horse, already wounded in the thigh. The latter seems to be reluctant to walk on the dead body of a Muslim lying on the ground. For Delacroix, the subject is mostly an excuse to portray a melee of great intensity, where humans and animals are closely associated.

Figure guardian of Romanticism, Delacroix was introduced to the East by reading Byron works. He discovers the realities during a trip to Morocco in 1832. His style of painting is deeply marked by the experience. This painting was inspired by a passage from Byron oriental tales published in 1814 under the title "The Giaour, a fragment of a turkish tale". The story chronicles the thwarted loves of a Venetian, the Giaour (term for an infidel to Muslims) and a slave, Leila, belonging to the harem of Hassan, military chief of a Turkish province. Leila, who missed the loyalty she had the Pasha Hassan was thrown into the sea. Her lover, the Giaour, the revenge by killing Hassan.
