Marianna Pineda, the sculptor who created the eight-foot statue of Queen Liliuokalani between the state Capitol and Iolani Palace, died Nov. 24 of pancreatic cancer at her home in Boston. She was 71.

Pineda's rendering of the queen -- "The Spirit of Liliuokalani" -- was unveiled in 1982 and became the focal point for the centennial of the U.S. armed invasion of the Hawaiian kingdom on Jan. 17, 1993. At that time 15,000 people gathered near the statue.

Pineda, who lived in Hawaii in 1970, cast the statue in Boston and had it shipped to Hawaii.

Another Pineda work, a figure of a seated woman called "The Accusative," is located inside the offices of the Commission on the Status of Women in the Kamamalu Building in Honolulu.

Pineda also produced "Search for the Queen," a documentary on Queen Liliuokalani's life and the creation of the bronze memorial. It was released this year.
