QUESTION::

What is incorrect in this sentence:
➡The Statue of Liberty is designed by Frederic Auguste Barthold.

____________________________
ANSWER::

According to grammar rules the incorrect part in the sentence is highlighted in quotation:-
➡The Statue of Liberty "is" designed by Frederic Auguste Barthold.

The word "is" is incorrect as we know that The Statue of Liberty was already designed but the "is" word shows the sense of present that's why it is an error .

So, the correct statement is :-
➡The Statue of Liberty was designed by Frederic Auguste Barthold.
