John Horsburgh

Oil Painting:  Alice Alexander

Valerie Reid, South of Spain, sent me this  photograph of a painting of her paternal grandmother, Alice Alexander, by J Horsburgh, probably painted 1906.

Valerie added

"I have reason to believe that my grandmother was a disciple of Horsburgh. I have some wonderful oils that she painted. I think they were neighbours."

Here, just discernable, is a signature on the lower-left corner of the painting.  Is this likely to be the Edinburgh painter, John Horsburgh (1835-1924)?
