There's a very sloppy paragraph in a People.com story about Princess Eugenie, and yes, I cut-and-pasted it exactly as is:
The hallway features aeveral stunning portraits line the walls, which are painted pale blue. The sun is streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows, which light up the ornate end tables and trail of bust sculptures. And the photo also offers a rare glimpse of the lavish red palace carpet runs the length of the impressive corrider.
The first sentence should say "several stunning portraits lining the walls..." and the last sentence should say "... the lavish red palace carpet that runs the length of the impressive corridor."
I'm also puzzling over the phrase "trail of bust sculptures" in the middle sentence. I don't see any obvious typos, but on the other hand I have no earthly idea what a trail of bust sculptures is. Yes I see the sculptures but are they really a trail? The whole paragraph is just weird.
Read the story here.
Sunday night update: People frequently doesn't correct their typos but this time they did. This is what the paragraph looks like now:
The hallway features several stunning portraits lining the walls, which are painted pale blue. The sun is streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows, which light up the ornate end tables and trail of bust sculptures. And the photo also offers a rare glimpse of the lavish red palace carpet that runs the length of the impressive corridor.
