"Reitergefecht Im Pulverdampf" exemplifies Courtois' skill in capturing the tumultuous atmosphere of warfare. The painting portrays a chaotic cavalry skirmish, with soldiers and horses engulfed in swirling clouds of gunpowder smoke. The artist's use of chiaroscuro enhances the sense of movement and urgency, as light and shadow play across the figures and landscape.

The composition of "Reitergefecht Im Pulverdampf" is meticulously arranged to draw the viewer's eye through the scene, creating a sense of depth and immediacy. Courtois' attention to detail extends to the accurate rendering of military uniforms, weaponry, and the chaotic interplay of forces on the battlefield.
