Kristen enters mikhael's art gallery and sees a painting that she loves. she says to mikhael, "this is the most beautiful monet i have ever seen. i will pay you $24,000 for it." mikhael knows that the painting is not an original monet, but is a painting by a local artist done in the style of monet. mikhael does not say anything to correct kristen, but sells her the painting at the offer price of $24,000. when kristen discovers the painting is not a monet, can she rescind the contract?

I don't think so. If she did not directly ask him if it was monet, then he technically did not lie.
