Hogarth's engravings, which provide a vivid portrait of eighteenth-century London, are of
interest to both artists and historians.
A. are of interest to both
B. are interests both for
C. are both interesting to
D. is of interest to both
E. is interesting for both

Hi all, Please help me with only the S-V error in this....Does the Hogarth's engavings will be a 1 group and refer to a singular verb (is) or we need to take them as a plural subject and choose the plural verb (are)...I am bit confused in these...if anyone can explain will be of great help...thanks...

IMO A.

Hograth's engravings is a plural subject. Only A/D are idiomatic.

P.S. Underline the part under study.
Getting defeated is just a temporary notion, giving it up is what makes it permanent.

A based on S-V agreement with engravings and parallelism

Hograth's engravings is a plural subject, so plural verb will be used.
IMO C is the right option.
