Later on, he became well known as a leading Wellington 'plein air' artist , with particular attention to atmospheric weather effects, and was one of the Silverstream School led by J. Nairn. Nugent exhibited in the NZ Academy of Fine Arts (Wellington) 1904-1935 and ASA 1913-1915. He is represented in the major New Zealand galleries. | |
