Questions

Ali went tо аn аrt gаllery seeking tо find a painting by Basquiat tо recommend to a client. Ali explained to Derrick, an art dealer at the gallery, that her client had no interest in purchasing art by any painter other than Basquiat. Derrick accurately informed Ali that the gallery had paintings by Basquiat as well as other artists. The paintings did not have descriptions accompanying them that listed the artist’s name. After walking around the gallery, Ali found a painting she liked and thought her client would like. Ali asked Derrick if that painting was by Basquiat. Derrick, uncertain of who the artist was but knowing that over half the paintings in the gallery were by Basquiat and knowing that saying the painting was by Basquiat would help him make a sale, said that painting was by Basquiat. Ali notified the client about the painting and the client subsequently purchased the painting. Later, while having the painting appraised, the client learned that the painting was not by Basquiat.Can the client successfully sue Derrick for misrepresentation?
