You can think of a black swan event as an Unknown Unknown.
However, we do believe we could have predicted it… with hindsight
“rara avis in terris nigroque simillima cygno”
“a rare bird in the lands and very much like a black swan”
Black swan events arise from the limitations of our knowledge. We need to understand this, as part of our understanding of risk management.
