Figure Caption do not continue in next page

[LaureTomas]

I'm writing a book in pdf using bookdown and I'm facing right now a little problem.

I have a figure that fits almost the entire space of the page (B5 format) so when I add the caption to the figure, the caption starts in the same page and it disappears (right picture), it doesn't continue in the next page, and it even exceeds the margin limits. In fact, if I open the rendered PDF with a graphical vector editing software (Inkscape) the full caption is there but outside the page limits (left picture).

I've been reading a bit about how LaTex deals with figures and I guess the problem is that the figure by default is a floating element and LaTex tries to place together the figure and the caption, so my question is:

How can I make the figure not to be a floating element so the caption can be placed on the following page using bookdown?

Thank you so much in advance.

I've prepared a minimal example of this behaviour:

Did you try this recipe already ?

This seems to be LaTeX problem, and you may have more success for answers at LaTeX forums.
You have a big figures with a long caption, so LaTeX needs to know how to handle that. This is definitely not standard for bookdown nor pandoc.
