Transferring intricate images to wood

Hello. I'm looking to transfer an album cover art to wood so I can do some pyrography but I'm struggling to find a way to transfer the image. It seems some methods aren't great if lines are super close together like in this image so I wanted to get some feedback. How would an experienced person transfer this image to wood?

I hate to be this person…

But, This is the “pyrography” sub. The definition of “pyrography” is the art or technique of decorating wood or leather by burning a design on the surface with a *heated metallic point. Laser burning is not pyrography. Rule 4 is: keep it on topic. Laser burning is not pyrography, and therefore not on topic of the sub. The “Woodburning” sub? Yeah, whatever, go for it. I didnt join this pyrography sub to see laser burns…
