Very observant, it certainly does. In Spain, Artillery was called "The Queen Of The Field", which goes hand-in-hand with your observation. OTOH: Muskets are given the masculine genre, and are associated to less noise and damage than the former.

This cannon is very decorated, reflecting its Bourbon ancestry. Napoleonic made guns were more practical and down-to-earth.
An odd detail is that it has no upper handles/hooks, something typical of Spanish and French guns.
Notice that there were separate rammers for ball and charge, and even a third, smaller one...
