I write a term paper in Lyx 1.4.3. (koma-script article class) and I
have a very large figure to include. In fact it is so large that its
legend does not fit on the same page. So I would like to have the legend
on the bottom of one page and the figure on the next as it is sometimes
done with large figures in scientific journals.

The legend should in every case be behind the image.
But anyway, a float is a box that normally can't be splitted. You can either decrease the image size a bit by setting its width for example to only 90 page%. A more complicated solution is to have the image in a separate float without a legend and a float that contains only the legend. Set for this second float the placement "top" so that it appears on top of a new page behind the image.

The problem of the two-float solution is that yo have to adjust the float placement manually when you changed the text of the section where the floats are in.
