Too big? No. From the photo it looks like you could even size up.

Looks like a pretty good size to me.
Bike fits can be good if you’re having problems but they can also be expensive and not productive if you are not already an experienced rider.
I’d suggest watching some videos on how to sort out saddle height and position fwd/back, get the saddle level, and use that as a starting point.

It looks like a decent fit. You are using the shortest stem you can and your elbows still look like they need more of a bend in them. There’s two solutions here, narrower bars or try to move the saddle forward more. That’s not the best solution but you are getting into micro adjustments where your fit is nearly dialed.

You look super upright and it is not a good or bad thing. But your wrist are bent, you should adjust your bar that your wrist be in straight natural position. You can adjust your shifter to acheive a good wirst position too.

You are riding that bike like its flat bar mtb, bad fit inneed. Drop bar >>>> bend over >>>> longer stem

It’s probably about right for a very relaxed riding position. Too small for an aggressive one (unless you want a really long stem, which I like, but most people do not for gravel riding). You first need to bend your elbows and lean forward a bit more. I’ve never seen someone try to ride a drop bar bike so upright.

Too big in the second picture, but good in the first one!

Definitely not too big
Looks too small
If you trim the bushes, it looks bigger
