Default Hopeing to identify

I bought this painting at the estate sale in Chicago.
The signature is not there, it may be under the frame. I would really appreciate if somebody could give me any info, artist or approximate age of the picture.
Thanks a lot.

Very strange subject - bell, book and candle. You may be aware that these items symbolize excommunication from the Catholic church.

But I'm afraid I can't shed any light on who may have painted it or when.
