The sketch is possibly a design for a painting by Delacroix with the same subject from 1846, which now hangs in the Walters Art Gallery in Baltimore. This oil sketch is reminiscent, both in the dramatic, busy composition and in the way of painting, of the works of the 17th century artist Rubens, whom Delacroix greatly admired.
