#internetbikefit and all that, but it looks like lowering the saddle might make enough of a difference to make bar swaps moot

That's just a random photo I found of her on the bike when she first got it to give a vague idea of what the fit was like. Even with the saddle adjusted properly she still isn't quite happy with it.
It's all a bit of a stab in the dark as she neither rides any bike much, nor has much experience of riding so I'm not quite sure how to start fixing the problem. We just want to get out down the canal path as a family, and I wondered if making it more upright would help.
What do you reckon? Am I barking up the wrong tree with trying to change the bars?

I want some swept back bars to make my wife's Kona nunu more comfortable and a bit more upright. 25.4mm clamp.
I've just found these that look the ticket - lots of sweep, bit of rise. Is there anything else I should be considering?

Looking at the image of her riding, it seems like I don't want full sweep, right?
Perhaps these?

These look great, but are a bit too expensive for taking such a random punt on
