Could someone tell me what this kind of art is called? It was mentioned on the old bard but I couldn't remember the name of it, I'm really wanting to look at more of this style art.

they're woodcarvings from back in the witch days.
i had lots of these from some witch & devil books i borrowed from libraries.
I used them in my own projects for artwork too

not really, no. it's related in that they're both types of engraving, but intaglio uses metallic matrices and ink/pigment to transfer an image, so it's used for printmaking and reproduction etc.. wood-carvings are (obviously) a wood matrix and typically a one-off production
