- Caine was an admirer of modern art, and Mick Farrell's sculpture Sheen is dedicated to her.
The sculpture, frequently referred to as Marti, is situated in Arundel Gate outside Sheffield Hallam University who commissioned it.
The sculpture was to have been unveiled by Caine, but she died two weeks before the scheduled unveiling. 
In the same year, the university awarded her an honorary doctorate in recognition of her life achievements and her contribution to the world of entertainment.   The woman was a f*cking philosopher as well. - Quote :
- Five years before her death, her autobiography A Coward's Chronicles was a best seller in 1990. It was praised by The Independent as being "an intelligently written and brutally honest account of her extraordinary life story". She titled her autobiography A Coward's Chronicles to counteract the tabloid image of her as a paragon of courage and defiance. "You fight for dear life", she said, "because you are too cowardly to embrace death".
