Thanks, that explains why I couldn't find any option in my reference book.
Funny, there's ALT for blind users, but nothing simple for sighted users.

There is no HTML element or attribute for that, that would make a
connection between the image and the caption. The caption element is for
tables exclusively.
One option would be to nest the image in the same paragraph, at least
then it has the same element. Setting the image display to block in
the CSS will show it above the text.
